16 bore for grizzly
      20/06/17 03:40 AM

Hi,
I'm a new member here.
I have a question for those of you who have hunted with bore guns: is an un-hardened ball enough for grizzly or should I use a water quenched wheel weight ball? I am going to be hunting black bears in the next few days in an area that has grizzlies (north Idaho) and I was thinking of keeping one barrel loaded with a hardened ball just in case a grizzly got nasty. I really doubt that the soft balls would lack in penetration but I just thought I would ask. The gun is a 18.5" barreled 16 bore double barrel shotgun I modified into a ball gun for close range bear hunting and protection. The Shells are loaded with 100 grains of fffg Schuetzen powder a 1/8" card wad a 1/2" lube cushion wad another 1/8" card wad and a cloth patched .655" ball.

Thanks
lane
