My first thought was I would use my .58 H&A underhammer with round balls. My second thought was "You idiot, that thing is 54" long, has a 32" barrel and weighs 11 lbs." My final thought was my Omega X7 with 300 grain XTPs would do quite well for bear with an overall length of 37 inches and weighing in at 6.5 lbs. with a 23" barrel and a 4X scope. So the question is, just how much walking will be involved in that spot & stalk?
