Black Bear Hunting

I have a question for you guys on black bear hunting. What are your thoughts for size of gun and type of bullet for black bears? I usually load Noslers at a 180 gr. for 300 Win Mag. There are several new Nosler bullets out now. Any of you have any experience with them?

It was a beautiful, 2 1/2 year old deer, looked really healthy and moved normally. When my father went to skin it for...
