Ruger offers their rifles in .35 Whelen. A friend bought one for brown bear and thumped a couple with it both hunting and DLP. He since sent it off to Hart for an AI version with a longer barrel.


In my experience a .30-06 with a good bullet will serve you well. It's my primary hunting rifle and I've shot shot a few browns with it both DLP and tagged. Even a couple wild beef cows on one of the nearby islands.
