First blood for the 300 Project. It was a long 40 yard shot. Thats why I love the 3.5-18 X5!
The 230 Berger was just plain nasty as usual.

Very nice! Those pack out pics are classic...surprised someone didn't report a big foot sighting.

About 1 mile, but all down hill

I had to use my wife's Kifaru 22 mag. Worked awesome!

230 Berger at 3100 FPS vs bear at 40 yards

Bullet entry. The bear was quartered away, hard and running

Bullet impacted off side shoulder.

145 grains of bullet.

Very cool! How has it been hiking around with the 300? Much better than the LRKM I take it! How far did she go after you shot her?

With the size of that exit wound, I'm surprised she went that far!

Crazy thing is..... that was the entrance wound channel. That bear soaked up a ton of energy!!! I'm sure the shock wave alone killed it.

Wow that thing does some damage!

 

[Broz]

Ryan, there is no doubt that big ole sow is too dead. You simply killed it too good. But that is kinda nice when they are inside 50 yards.

Good job
