Anyone use them?

I'm going on a black bear hunt in 3 weeks and plan to use a 7-08 with 139gr GMX. What are your thoughts?

How about on deer as well come fall hunting season.
 
I have used that bullet on Yotes. It is a tough bullet. The Yotes that fell to it had a small hole going in and a baseball hole size going out. I found that it had excellent accuracy also.
 
I shoot 165 GMX bullets in 30.06 caliber. They work well for me on elk, deer, antelope and black bear. Most of the animals have dropped within 2-3 steps of where I've shot them.

I have recovered a few bullets trapped right under the hide on the exit wound. Bullet retains 95+% of original weight.

I like the bullet and recommend it to my hunting buddies. As with all bullets- placement is key. I use Hornady Superformance and have had great results in my rifle.
