[QUOTE="348Winchester, post: 4271830, member: 11952"] A round nose bullet with plenty of lead exposed would be ideal. There is absolutely no need to lay out the extra money for a premium bullet. Hornady and Sierra both make a good round nose 180 grain bullet in .308 diameter. My 270 has done wonders on several bears with the base factory loaded Federal 150 grain round nose. Another bear was taken with my 30-30 and 150 grain silvertips. The only one I killed with a handload was a 45-70 with a 405 grain soft point over 47.2 grains of Reloader-7. It did the job nicely.
