Black Bear Ammo
New member here, I did some searching and never found what I am about to ask. If this is a repeat topic, I apologize. I am heading to Minnesota in September for my first ever Black Bear hunt over bait with shot ranges from 20 to 50 yards. I will be using a SBHH in 41 Remington Mag topped with a Nikon 2-8x32 BDC scope. I normally shoot 210 grain XTP or 210 grain Gold Dot HP when hunting. I, as well as my guide are concerned with using hollow points on thick skinned heavy boned bears. What is a good ammo to go with. I'm considering HSM 230 grain "bear loads". Any advice will be appreciated.

Older post, but talking about heavier 41 mag bullets, the 265 grain Cast Cup point, PC, GC bullets from a MIHA Mold is so accurate, and penetrates so well, I’m casting similar cup points in all possible MIHA molds.
