i have a 3inch 12 gauge rifled shotgun...i shot a nice remington copper top, deep hollow point....i have taken down two 300lb hogs that gave up the ghost after about a 30 yard run...in and out holes were the size of a 1/2 dollar....
our hogs are tough, but, how will it do with a bear..i have a nice scope that is dead on and love it for hogs and deer...
thanks,
