Thanks for the support guys. If I were a rich man i'd be handgunning all the critters I could but for now I have to stay with what I have at home.

Thanks guys The shot was 60 yds with my 5 1/2 in Bisley in .45 Colt. I used a 250 grn.XTP and 20 grn. of 2400 powder. Rib in and rib out, the liver and both lungs. Distance ran after shot approximately 70 yds. All three of my .45s have drawn blood now. Thanks SChunter for the help with the picture.

Greg- great photo. Was that one of the bulls you saw earlier?
CMnash- great job on the black bear. I am yet to run into one.
The God who gave us such a beautiful land, wonderful game, and the sport of hunting is worth knowing.

CMNash: Good job on the bear! Good shot although I have been with you shooting prairie dogs and I do not doubt your ability at all!
SBHunter81: Yes I believe that is one of the bulls I scouted earlier; just didn't get his herd on video.

Well, I killed a 400+ pound black bear last Wednesday with hounds in North Carolina with forum member cottonstalk. But, due to the overcast conditions, which sent the gps system into a fritz, and the absolute impenetrable foliage, we were unable to recover the bear. Talk about depressing. We shot him in the shoulder while treed and he managed to run to another with the dogs in hot pursuit at which time we shot him in the vitals again, after catching up. Both shots knocked the bear off the tree and this last time he ran off, with dogs at his heels when he expired. By the time we got within 100 yards of the dogs, two hours had elapsed, and the dogs broke away from the dead bear as they had lost interest (which is what they do after a while when the animal isn't moving any more). Finding an animal in that mess is like finding a green BB in the grass. In hindsight, we should have simply let him expire after the first tree, but we pushed him off. Bummer. His head was easily three times the size of the 200 pound bear I killed last year. Crap.
