    2025 spring bear thread

    Harvested my first black bear last week. Warden estimated the sow to be 6-8 yr old when a tooth was pulled for precise aging. No signs of lactation this year. Probably an average 5 ft. bear from what my brother-in-laws told me.

    I am in the same boat as you as I have leaned in to the keto/carnivore diet and have loved the simplicity and health benefits. The tuna packets are good, just have to find the right couple flavors you prefer. Jack links meat/cheese sticks that come in the 10 pack from Costco are tasty as well...

    What are you currently reloading?

    Assuming muzzle velocity and powder charge? The ladder test for my rifle showed that the accuracy of 3 shot-groups was best (0.4 MOA at 100 yards) at 75.5 gr of RL-26. My GeoBalistics app shows an estimated velocity of 2080 fps at 600 yards so I am confident fast enough from 0-600 yards to...
