How heavy is this bear

I don't have any info on the measurements as it isn't my back yard. If we had a spring season I'd be out looking for him hard but gotta wait till fall. The picture was taken by someone my mother knows that lives about 5 k from one of the properties i hunt. Knowing how far bears will go and wander it is plenty close enough for me to get excited
 
If that bear is 350+ its head is going over 20". It isn't even 300 is my bet, a solid 265 with a 17 1/4" skull.

Solid bear though with a great coat. Punch a hole in him, and you'll be happy.

No way that bear has a 17 1/4" skull, more like 17 1/8" and weight right at 259.5 lbs., after he takes a sh*t.

Pretty much impossible to guess a weight just by looking at a picture of a sitting bear. Shoot him, and load him, then guess weight after loading. Halve your estimated weight and you should be close to actual. :D
