In Barnes Reloading Manual #3 there is a combination that
should made for good bear medicine.  For starters a Barnes 220 gn X bullet, starting load with IMR 4350 should be 67.0 gn at 2530 fps.  Max listed load data for IMR 4350 72.0 gn at 2720fps.  Muzzle energy is listed at 3683 foot pounds and down range energy at 200 yds is listed at 2713 foot pounds. This is data from the manufacture and should be fairly accurate.  Hope this helps
