Well for that, particularly the lions and bears, I would go with something along the lines of a .30 06[/quote]
A couple years ago I killed a bear on our front step with a .223. He was looking through the sliding glass door at our granddaughters.[/quote]
What kind? A black bear? Or one of those big brown bears?[/quote]
He was a black bear. A .223 will kill most things if you hit them in the right place. I use a .243 a lot of the time. I havent shot a big gun in years.
