    Is a 12-guage shotgun powerful enough to hunt a bear with?

    If your using buck shot keep the range within 30 yds on black bear(00 or 000). Use remington buckhammer or brennekke slugs out to longer ranges.

    How do I remove the bolt from winchester model 12?

    Isn't that impossible because the bolt is attached to the slide which is all attached to the barrel? As you pull the barrel off the slides comes with it and locks the bolt in place

    Ithaca Deerslayer II vs Remington Model 870 Express Deer vs Mossberg 500 Slugster

    Honestly its a pump gun. And I think it is ridiculous to pay over $350 for one. Ithaca's are over priced and you not getting much bang for your buck. I'd go for a remington or a mossberg they are both excellent guns and are about as accurate as the Ithaca. I perfer mossbergs though bc of their...

    20 gauge hornady sst slug for black bear?

    I have been reading about a possible black bear season in NJ. I was wondering if the 20 gauge hornady sst slug is enough for your average blackie. I think their 250 grains and leave the muzzle at 1900 or 1800 fps. All shots would be within 50 yards. Thanks and happy shotgunning
