Is that a A7 tecomate by chance? Fine choice in both rifle and caliber :IBCOOL:

Also, thanks for saving my NE corner fawns ;)

Thanks guys!!!! Definitely had an overwhelming sense of accomplishment and happiness flood over me after he went down.
I know exactly what you mean. :tup:
Post by: johnnyaustin44 on May 07, 2013, 04:01:40 PM
That bear's coat is absolutely beautiful. :tup: All the bears I've been seeing in the NE are pretty raggedy looking. What elevation were you, around 4000 ft?
Also, thanks for saving my NE corner fawns ;)
I'd say around 2500 ft elevation. No problem on the fawns.

Oh ,he is a beauty :tup: What was his weight? Really nice boar ......congrats :drool:
We figured around 250 to 275. His head doesn't fit his body that well.

My boar from a few years ago was the same way. Long winters up there, they drop a lot of weight while in there dens! I bet he was pushing 400 lbs when he denned up last fall.Yeah he was big for sure. I tried to keep a low guess because I know how deceiving bears are with weight.

Same bullet. 140 grain accubond. Really did a number to this bears insides. Don't think I'll shoot any different bullets after that.
They are amazing I have taken 30+ big game animals with accubonds and they have never let me down. If I remember right 9 of them have been with my A7 and the 140g accubond. I run them in a lot of my guns. They shoot great and they sure dump a lot of energy into the animals. The only thing is they do tend to blood shot a lot of meat if you hit really solid stuff like a shoulder.
