Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Alaska 300 win mag grizzly and moose?

Here is mine...

Shot it with a 330 Dakota using a 250 gr Swift A frame

Squared and honest 9' 10"
Skull was 27 13/16"



I have seen 2 other brown bears killed in my life..
One was with a 300 rem ultra- 200 gr. noslers
One with 300 win. using 180 barnes x

The Guide I used frequently takes hunters for Brown Bears with bow and arrow.. I agree with Phil, a 30.06 with right bullet placement with kill any bear on the planet.

I believe that you want more gun when things go wrong/bad.. meaning you failed to put the bullet where you intended.. that to me is where the larger caliber and premium bullet can really help. That is not an all encompassing statement, however this bear is proof that the larger caliber helped me harvest this bear. BTW-- this was a large bear for the area in was shot in. We were just south of the Alaska pass in the Talkeetna's.
