Here’s my black bear from Central Arizona

I shot this big boy from 486 yards while glassing a canyon. He only went about 50 yards before expiring under some brush. His skull green scored 20 inches and it’s estimated that he weighed between 350-400 pounds. Game and Fish thinks he is at least 15 years old.

I shoot a Remington model 700 bull barrel .308 with thumb adjustable scope elevation and windage turrets.

Thanks

very nice bear, congratulations on a well placed shot. Man I would hate to see that taxidermy bill for a life size :shock:
