Still?? Auurgh!

Congrats on a Nice Bear there Bud - Decent sized too ! ;-) Thought you might 0have used the old 300 Savage ! lol RJ



Pics are ALL there ! :biggrin:

Well, I signed up for an imgur account, since google photos didn't seen to be playing nice with HBC, at least not for all of us, and re-posted the pics in the original posts.

Thanks for the comments guys. Caddisguy, the sub was my go-to, an Italian BMT. LOL. RJ, no, I needed first-hand proof that a .338WM would kill something. I was starting to have my doubts. LOL.

Pics are visible for me. Beauty bear. well done.
Did you measure him yet?

No, I haven’t. With small rub visible in his first pic, and being pressed for time I didn’t take any case skinning, so the hide won’t be saved. But I will lay it out and tape it.

Good read and pics, mighty fine bear. CONGRATS.

Nice tale, and nice sized boar!
Shame on the hide. That color would have looked awesome as a rug methinks.
Enjoy the grits!

And many thanks for sharing!

Cheers,
Nog

So I’m getting 68” nose to tail, and 81” front claw to front claw. 68+81 / 2 = 74.5”. Solo measurements, so I tugged on the hide every which way before measuring, but not during.

Got a couple more pics I’ll put up in a bit.

Ok I see them now, before it was just the line through the circle thingy. Awesome bruin!!!!! Was worth the wait :)....
