Hornady Interlock,Trophy Bonded,Partition,Swift A-frame just to name a few....
I would go with a 180 gr bullet.Also don't forget that bullet placement on a big bear can be deceiving because of the hair hanging down from the chest.Aim a little higher than
you would on a deer.

PS:Last year the pending world record black bear was killed(by a car!) right here in Manitoba.It had a live weight of approx. 900lbs.DNR officals estimate that if it had not been killed in the early fall(about 2 months before hibernation),it may have topped 1000lbs when it would have denned up!!!!
