Muzzleloader Bear
My First (and after this maybe only..) bear.
Saturday night 6:15 pm in Clinton county
Muzzleloader, 50 cal Hornady I forgot which bullets
Came out about 45 yards away, perfect broadside, went about 2 stumbling strides and dropped
Sow
230lbs
5 ft nose to tail
The suckling teeth the game commission like to pull was already gone so thinking she was getting up there in age
Getting her done into a rug mount with the skull bleached for a mount.

Re: Muzzleloader Bear
I had someone hunt my property for bear last week and the funny thing was I captured this huge bear on the trail cam standing exactly where he was but the twain shall never meet. Had a bunch of other bears running all the over the damn place near where he sat but only when he wasn't there.

Re: Muzzleloader Bear
Thanks all!
I used 2 of the IMR White Hot Pellets for a total of 100 grains. Checked and I used the Hornady Monoflex sabots, red tip, 250 grains. Plenty lethal combo at that range. Had a good size exit round on other side and found part of jacket inside when gutting.
Amen to cleaning deer size animals. I couldn*t get the damn poop tube out so I split the pelvis to be able to get the bottom half all cleaned out. Taxidermist said shit, made my job a lot harder to skin as he likes to hang the bear on his hoist using a hook on the pelvis bone. He said next time leave it in there if you can*t get it out we*ll take care of it here.
