240 grains slugs work well. I just bought a box of 240 FMJ's that I intend on loading up. If they wont penetrate..nothing is going to.!
If Fred Bear can kill a Kodiak with a bow and arrow...I have no problem in "defending myself" from a black bear or a grizzly from the 48 states!

No doubt Fred Bear was the real deal. He knew how to hunt and he knew how to get close, and shoot! He also was smart enough to have a guide with a high powered rifle along most of the time.
Your 240's may or may not penetrate straight. It depends more on their profile than their FMJ construction.
If you have never fired the 300's at the speeds I am getting from 10 grains of Unique, you should. They are easier to control than
any factory full powered 240 load by a noticable degree.

I'm not sure what you are saying here, since my post said that it
does smell fishy.
