[lightmag]

1st night out for spring bear, saw 5, took this 6 footer. 1st kill with the new X bolt 300 WSM, 165 TSX 200 yards, hit him hard, did a complete flip and ran 30 yards and died on the log in the pic!! now I hold out for a big one or a nice color phase!!

Congrats on breaking the virginity of that new rifle and with a very nice bear at that! Seems like you and that rifle are building up a nice cozy relationship with a success streak too... Way to go!

Excellent picture. Nice to get out for a bear hunt.
How do you like the gun. I'm seriously looking at buying that exact gun and selling the Weatherby 300 mag.I like the idea of clips on the x-bolt.
