Though I think SE Alaska runs a bit thicker and wetter than Montana, lest from what I've seen.
Still I'd have no problem with a 243.
I agree with Steelhead here. My SE bear hunt was wet and if the bear gets off the beach and into the thick stuff, might be hard to follow. I guess what Im after here is, will the 6mm get him down quite quickly? Steel, how far did the 2 you shot with the 25's go? Were you spot and stalking from a skiff? That is what I am planning on doing again.
