That works well until you are surrounded by the outside of a bear. LOL

If the OP was a serious question, yes, a .30-06 is more than enough gun to efficiently kill a bear. The issue is that when you are in bear country, you have to learn to live with them. A bear in the yard is an everyday occurrence in my part of the country. As others have said, they are usually not hard to chase off or discourage. Feeding them or allowing them access to food is what causes problems. No food, no bear problem.
Yep we see them daily. This is 75 yards from my back porch

Shotguns using slugs are just as difficult to hit with as rifles. 000 Buckshot would be better for those of us likely to get nervous and weak in the knees.

Bears are not tuff animals. I have killed several with my bow and a few with a gun. A double lung shot and they are usually down I 50 yards unlike deer.
