While guiding a bear hunter this last spring, my bro finished off a nice bear with his .356 Winchester, a semi-rimmed cousin to the .358 Winchester. The bear had his left front leg blown almost off by a .300 Wtby, just below the elbow, no other damage to the bear, but he was hurting. The hunter couldn't find it in the sights to finish it off, so he said "you sh/BANG", my bro smacking it through both lungs with his little m94/angle eject. The bear expired in almost instantly. Bang--dead. His load was 46gr. H335, CCI 250 primer and a 250 gr. Hornady. Velocity from the 20" barrel is 2,159fps. That bear died just as previous moose have at from 50 yards to just over 200. Bang -- dead.
: I'd get him to change bullets, but these work so well, he just isn't interested in any changes. It shoots 1-1/2" groups at 100 meters off the bags, not bad for a lever gun.
