Scapula. A high shoulder shot through the scapula, and the nerve bundle behind it. Finish it off with a head shot.

I killed a big ole black bear north of Mackenzie a few years back whilst performing silly surveys! Frontal shot, about 20 feet, 1 SSG from my 12ga, maybe it was 00 buck, not sure now! He dropped, didn't even move, aim point was his nose. I tried to give him the R/W, but he chose the incorrect direction. Killed many Black bears with centerfire rifle cart, from 6.5's to 444 marlin, all become sauasage material. I have a M77/44 in the safe that hasen't yet killed a critter, was gonna try my 240xtp handloads this spring. Moosin
They do make for great bullet testing mediums, that is for sure.
