Ok, so we went down to try and call in a bear on Monday, After about 35 min or so we realized we should have brought the Therma Cell, gloves, face maskes & worn long sleeve shirts because we were getting eaten alive by skeeters
. We decided to head to a differant spot and started to walk off, we got about 20 yards and stopped to look behind us only to see,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, yep, you got it, a bear walking down the trail toward us
. It had stopped and was just looking at us, I slowly dropped to a knee as it turned broadside and I squeezed the trigger,,, CLICK...... the shell didn't go off
. The bear started to walk and Jay squeaked at it, It stopped to look at us some more. I jacked a nother shell in, lined up and BAMMM,, I looked down the trail and the bear was gone
. We went to where the bear was standing and found a nice trail of blood, the Olympic Arms 300 supper short mag really did some damage. The bear only went about 15 to 20 yards and piled up
. Not a giant and the footage isn't great but no biggy, I'm happy. We have more tag's, now we just need more bear's
