Wanted speed and accurate out of my 44 mares legs. I put a Marbles bullseye sight on it left the front as is. After a few hundred rounds of practice. Today I said good enough. I use a trigger stick standing and put five rounds HMS 305gr Bear load into a 1 1/2" group 25yds with three holes touching in under one minuet,about 40 seconds.Bear season opens back up sept. first.

Re: Goal reached
I am guessing that speed and accuracy would be essential when facing down a bear.
Good luck and stay safe up there in big critter country.

Re: Goal reached
having taken black bears with two different Ruger 44 mag revolvers, I certainly agree that accuracy is a prime concern .... but then that's pretty much the same with all big game .... speed helps and at times can be criticalRetiredSeabee wrote:I am guessing that speed and accuracy would be essential when facing down a bear.

I still do and also use my Talo Ruger SBH 3 3/4" 44mag. My Henry and Ruger both like the HMS 305gr bear loads,very accurate.tractortad wrote:Hey seak89 - did you really hunt Alaskan brown bear with a 44 mares leg?
