Hello everyone I am new too this forum so please be patient with me. Although black bear in this area are almost too the point of being pest my brother and I have never took hunting them very serious, until now. We have A long bear season here soo my brother myself, and my oldest son are going too black bear hunt hard starting with our fall 2005 season. We are already doing research on the bears in our area, we have over 25 years experince hunting whitetail deer and everything else that roam these woods. By the way I live in West Virginia in A south east county with mountains ranging from 1500 feet above sea level too over 2000 feet above sea level. My first question on the subject of hunting bears and I am sure you have heard it before is what caliber? Now in that field my choices are limited I hunt with lever actions only and calibers available too me are as follows. The 30-30 winchester, the 35 remington, and the 44 remington magnum. I thought maybe the 35 but being new too bear hunting I would appreciate your suggestions. Black bears around here go from around 300 pounds too 600 pounds havent heard of very many above 600, soo thanks ahead of time nice meeting you folks.
