the best choice for Black Bear hunting

[j48cruiser]

 I have Buffalo Bore 220 grain hard cast in 10mm or Double tap 200 grain deep penetration jacket hollow point.  Big game season is Deer and Bare my pistol is a long slide Para USA in 10 mm

Don't forget Underwood, 200gr XTP, or 220 HC : )

Honestly, a .30 caliber rifle or larger. Don't take this the wrong way. I love 10mm guns and just bought another one. But even a 30-30 hits harder.

Wouldn't have the slightest qualms about hunting Black Bear using 10mm loaded with any one if these...
Buffalo Bore 155gr TAC-XP
Underwood 200gr XTP
Hornady 200gr XTP
Hornady 180gr XTP
Sig sauer 180gr Elite V-Crown
Federal 180gr Trophy Bonded

Others 10mm options I might add into the mix....
Speer 200gr Gold Dot
Something from Underwood Xtreme Defender or Xtreme Hunter line. 


Happy hunting, good luck!!

Just be safe, regardless of your choice, toothy critters to be sure : )

Your BB 220 grain would do very well. Just be sure to test for reliability before hunting dangerous game.
