I recently bought a remington model 7600 in a .35 whelen to use on an upcoming hunt to maine for black bear . I bought some federal trophy bonded bear claw factory ammo 225 grain has anyone had any experience with this caliber and bullet combo Just wondering if this is a good bullet for black bear I was also looking at the barnes tsx bullet in 200 grain.
Any info appreciated thanks

I like the Sierra 225 Gameking , Best BC and good heft , they shoot clover leafs for me ! Black Bear are no harder to kill than a Deer . Cup and core bullets work fine especially .35 Cal.
