which caliber is better

[magnanimous_j]

I say .30-.30 a vital part of the redneck trio: .30-.30, 12 ga, .22 rifle. Don't leave home without it.  

dont forget the mullet!!!! 

True, true. But you're missing the finishing touch. The awesome wolf shirt

For hunting bear: the 30-30.  It's quick follow up shots would be handy on bear.  In my opinion the 243 and 257 is to small of a caliber for bear.
