Just make sure you shoot him between blinks, I'm afraid you might experience bullet failure if you hit an eyelid

I hear full metal jackets are excellent for plowing through the bush when the bear is in heavy cover. Harder to make eye shots tho..

Sadly my Hornets slow twist won't stabilize 53grainers...so I'm forced to use 45gr. XLC's...

This bullet seems very looong. Is it a .260 140gr?

btw

Nice shootin. Very accurate for a Remmy.

[todbartell]

those are 142 grain 6.5mm, perfect for ursus eye shots

 

[boney]

You did fire that group BEFORE you mounted the scope I would assume?

Illegal for hunting use in BC.

Good one!

 

[todbartell]

its only a fixed 6 power, barely counts as optics

The best laid plans etc, etc. I'm sure that outfit will be very comforting in the willows with ole Bart 6 feet away.

 

[beretta boy]

2 clicks left and about 14 up ... you just might hit 'im in the
left eye too.

Nice shootin' TB !

 

[dw]

Bartell. I did shoot this bear through the left eye however I was closer. But look what rifle I had to use..... I win.

 

[beretta boy]

We think the Toddmeister has another kind of bruin in mind !
