EZEARL: That's an option and the reason cartridges like the 35 Whelen, 9.3x62 and 338/06 are useful, too.

I did load workup for an older guy who was headed for a brown bear hunt in Alaska. The 375 and the 300 Weatherby were too much for him but the 35 Whelen was just right.




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
