A long time ago, in the 1960's and 1970's, the most used outfit by non-resident brown bear hunters was the Mark V Wby in 300 using 180 Nosler screw machined bullets.
There was a time when the Wby MkV was semi-popular but it's price was always high - my memory is that the pre-64 M-70 was a lot more popular by a wide margin. The Rem M-700 eventually became almost as popular by the 1980's
