more on bears and leverguns
one of the nurses husbands was in his tree stand Friday with his trusty marlin 45/70
I think he was using factory 405s
he started shooting and put four into it....wisely stayed on the stand for quite a while , called his son and they found it piled up in the brush, not far away and already stiff
quite a big bear, they are processing the meat too. estimated its curb weight was about 1000 pounds
