Well done! I guess 325#. Did you happen to get any measurements (girth, length nose to tail, length front claw to front claw)? I do not mind taking an easy bear considering how many miles I usually log before killing one. Sometimes they come easy, most often they come hard. Rufous.

Thanks guys, remember take this into account these bears have no fat on them right now, I was actually pretty surpirsed of his weight after weighing him, its a big eye opener on actual bear weights.

Nice bear James! That exit wound is pretty devistating looking! Hard to judge in the photos but If I had to guess I'd say between 275 and pushing 300? I have no idea! Great looking bear! What are you going to do with it?
