I don't think shootin' a bear at 100 yards can be considered self defense. :wink: I picked up a 336 in .35 Rem in a recent widder skinnin' and might git around to shootin' it someday. All I could find was Winchester 200 grain Hollow Points. Sure hope the Marlin chambered in a Remington cartridge don't refuse the Winchester ammo. :oops:
