So who is going spring black bear hunting. And where.
I am going to give it a try this year. I have never shot one, But seen
lots. Here on Vancouver Island ,BC We have a large population of bears.
And what are you going to use. I am going to use my Marlin xlr 45/70 or my 7mm08.

Unfortunately, I live in Ontario, where hunting bear in the spring has been deemed evil, and therefore, prohibited.  I'll have to settle for turkeys.
Hunting is Exciting!  Bolt actions are BORING!!
Don't mix the two!

I'll be running some bait. Probably shooting a 12 gauge with slugs again this year.
My avatar is pretty much what I look like out in the woods - except I am not a "chick" in any sense of the word.
