Don't listen to the naysayers. I can assure you that a 110 grain mono in .30 caliber is plenty for black bear. Between the 110 grain Barnes Tac-TX, the 120 grain Tac-TX and the 110 grain Hornady GMX (now called CX), I've taken dozens of hogs -- and some were quite large. From a purely structural standpoint in terms of a hog's anatomy, if these bullet can do the job on a fully mature boar, they'll be fine on a black bear.
And yes, TAC will work, but don't overlook H4895, AA2495, Varget or SW Precision.
