Well gentlemen, I have shot a black bear over point with a Parker VH 20 choked cyl/mod. Now, the rest of the story--While bird hunting one fall, in a state to remain un-named, my Brittany,Jess went on point near a beaver dam. When I walked in, he was pointing an emaciated black bear that appeared to have broken its back. It was crawling along with its front legs and its back legs looked like gangreen had already set in. The bear was more dead than alive, so I put it out of its misery with 7/8 oz of #8's at point blank range. I have always called that area the bla ck bear cover since.
