first off a special thanks to Mike aka 6.5x55mm
In the short 2hr span that we were together 6.5x55mm, me and Tony the Italian saw 6 moose 3-4 deer, two rabbits and one small 2yr bear. At first I was going to take the bear but 6.5x55mm and Tony told me to pass it was too small.
6.5x55mm had to leave because he had to work so Tony and I headed out to the grassy areas he had showed us by foot. I walked down to the second patch and Tony to the third. After an hour and a half I walked up to meet Tony and we decided to walk back down to first patch to look around, upon coming around the bend on the rd I spotted a nice brown bear feeding on the grass in the first open grassy patch. Tony urged me to wait and try to get closer. I knew I could hit it at that distance so I decided to take the shot against Tony opinion. The problem was the bear was facing us not offering a broadside shot. I quickly put down the Harris bipod and aimed for the back of his head while he fed. The bear was feeding then walking a few feet then stopping and continuing to feed off and on. I waited, fired and hit him on the head right by neck. He dropped!
