After seeing Phil's post on his "satisfying feeling" the 458 affords him, one has to be AN IDIOT, to show up for a big bear hunt with a 3006 and bordering on lunacy with anything lighter.
It would be interesting to know, though probably difficult to quantify, what calibers of rifles used by clients, have required the most frequent follow-up shots by guides in bear hunting situations.
Sometimes, the air you 'let in'matters less than the air you 'let out'.
