Black bear ok others I want something a little more powerful than a 30-30

Hi Lanny, not sure if it was designed specifically as a bear bullet, but it certainly will work for bears. The .30-30 Winchester cartridge is a popular round for hunting medium-sized game, such as deer, bear, and wild boar. Flat nose soft point ammo is commonly used for hunting applications, as it is effective at taking down medium to large game. The flat nose, soft point design of the bullet is intended to increase the surface area of the bullet that makes contact with the target, which can result in a larger wound channel and more efficient transfer of energy to the target. The Pioneer bullet is designed for deep penetration and high weight retention, making it an effective choice for hunting larger game. Muzzle velocity is 2040 fps and muzzle energy is 1756 ft lbs Stay safe & have a great day!
