Some of the lever actions are quite small and easy to handle....

I have shot a 44-40 and didnt think it was much of a heavy hitter, and should have plenty of punch for black bear and deer....

What is the hunting area like that you hunt in?? Since you say bears Im guessing woodsy??

That can also help influence the caliber.....if you are hunting speed goats on open prairie, you will want something that is fairly flat shooting......
