Email sent. AK, please PM me your email and Phone# in case he asks. Thanx.


Dawg, I just emailed my contacts over at Guns and Ammo & the NRA's American Hunter/Rifleman Magazines.

One of them will make this a Front Cover Article..

Can you post a pic of you with the big bear and your Bushmaster? Would really like to have that for reference.

I'm not so sure I have any. The photo I posted of the bear before skinning has the bushmaster in the background. I think I have some with the hide and head still in. I'm waiting on a CD of pictures fro
My hunting partner to have all of them.

Cool. Larry Rea emailed me back acknowledging receipt of the story. I'm sure he has a full plate but maybe Larry can contact AK eventually.

Awesome job on a huge bear! Congrats brother!

This story should make an entry into this years hunting contest, it may be the largest/dangerous game animal shot this year with this cartridge!
