As mentioned buy a couple different brands and see which holds the best group, even the "cheaper" brands will shoot and kill a Bear.  Best of luck going after Bear this year

It's a 24" Mossberg Patriot. Cheaper gun, but supposed to be pretty decent.

How's the Mossberg Patriot working out at the range?  I don't think he's the best resource on the interwebs, but the Backfire guy on the YouTube had a horrendous experience with that model, including get a new one that also shot terribly.  Not sure which caliber.  I have it in 300 win mag also, and it was terrible (I mean really bad) with about 6 types of factory loads and then ok (about 1 - 1.5MOA) with the Barnes LR load.  I ultimately lost confidence in it and stick with my old 7MMRM.  Last thing I wanted to do was take it on a hunt and get a flyer.  But other folks on the youtube have had good results with it.  I guess the point is that maybe more so with that rifle, the occasional bad one might be more common and really bad...  Hope you got a good one.

I have a couple partial boxes laying around I would let go for a very fair price.  I handload everything now days and they are just taking up room on the shelf. 

19 winchester Super X power point 180 grain
17 Hornady Superformance 180 grain SST
10 Nosler Accubond 180 gain
8 Remington core lokt 150 grain

Total 54 rounds......Say $50 bucks is pretty fair these day.

I’m not a loading snob, and my rifle doesn’t care
180g partitions make big holes

Took me a few boxes of different brands to find what my Tikka liked.
