    My Grizzly @ Wildlife Designs 150 Mile House

    Whoo hoo finally some news on my grizzly rug and I thought I would share to get some of you guys that are going grizzly hunting soon hearts pumping...

    June 1/08 I shot this interior grizzly just north of Fort St James after skinning it out and getting it down to Steve @ Wildlife Designs in 150 Mile House I have been patiently waiting for some news.

    Today Steve gave me a call then sent these 2 pictures of the work in progress, I'm now thinking I don't have a wall big enough...

    Picture of when we walked up to the bear the picture does not do this bear justice it was way bigger than the pic shows.



    Pic of Steve's employee he is 6' 4" tall.



    Steve is 6' tall and is standing on a 42" high table and he tells me that from the nose to the board just below his left hand is 3 feet...

    I shot the bear with a Rem 700 LSS in 375 RUM loaded with 300gr Partitions at 2775fps it was about 9:15pm when I shot and it got dark at just after 10pm so my son and I came back in the morning to find the bear.

    When we walked in to the thick bush were the bear ran into after being shot I was carrying my Marlin 1895GS 45-70 with 525gr Beartooth WLNGC's @ 1600fps my son carried his 8.5" Dlask Rem 870 12 gauge loaded with 3" Brenneke slugs.

    I bought the Marlin as a regular GS then saw that Marlin had done a special run of 500 black/gray laminate stocked GS's so I called them and smoozed them into selling/sending me the stocks.

    From what they told me I am the only person that they were selling the stocks to.

    Howdy, Beauty bear-I hope your house has a 12'0 or more cathedral ceiling. You sure don't want anyone walking on that puppy! Later

    That's how it was laying when we found it, it had piled up while it was in a full out run, it bowled over a few trees and it was laying side ways to the direction it was running.
