Plus, even if a person planned to hunt the big bears, it would be easy enough to borrow a big gun from a looney or the outfitter for the hunt. Or simply post up a WTB ad for a 338. There are certainly plenty of “seldom used” boomers sitting in people’s gun safes for a bear hunt which never happened. One of these could be purchased cheap and sold at minimal lost post hunt, as big bear hunts are few and far between for most of us, even many of those who engage in the practice.
