bear guns ?

what kind of gun do you carry . i have a 35 marlin leaver action . will this gun be effective enough to bring down a bear ?thinking about trying to bag one this fall .

It sure will. That old caliber with a 200 grain bullet does a dandy job on a black bear.

gun

that ought to do it we carry single shot 444 marlin shot placement more important than cal though have had kids kill them with a 223 only bear ive ever killed was with a 357 mag that was out of necessaty though

35 Rem is one of my favorites. I would say that is nearly ideal as a bear gun. I have an old Marlin 336 also. Old school north woods rifle. Love it.

Any gun works fine if you can shoot it. If your a horrible shot better go with the biggest possible caliber or RPG. lol

We had a boy with us hunting that year he was 6 years old. He killed a good bear with a 243 it's all about shot placement.

Ok,thanks he is usually a good shot he shoots the coons out for me with no problem in the trees he has killed several deer also

Check out the little Ruger Model 96 lever gun in .44 mag that I used on CARNIVORE for bear and lions. The 240 grain Hornady bullet has a lot of stopping power.

Sorry Todd, they don't make it any more. If you find one, in .44 or .357, I highly suggest that you cabbage onto it. They are hard to find and will appreciate in value.
Adios,
