I'm very interested in hearing about failures/successes with various calibers/bullets on big black bears. Please list your favorites/non-favorites based on ACTUAL hunt outcomes, not theoretical suggestions. Please note shot placements (shoulder vs. boiler room), how many shots required and how far the bear traveled after being hit, if recovered. Any anecdotes on bad outcomes (shoulder shots that didn't penetrate, etc.) would be most helpful. (This is just for some additional background for a story). Thanks!
