Mainer,
How many grizzly hunts have you been on or shot.
.300 Rum is a varmints rifle?
I watched a friend put a 7' bear down with a 300 ULTRA 180 Nosler. 1 shot no drama
Really guys using varmint loads?

Maybe he is talking about my son... he shot a coastal brown bear with a 25-06 and 80gr TTSX. He shot twice, but either shots would have killed the bear in about the same amount of time, fast...
Bears are not magic and as far as bullets are concerned quite light-boned and soft. It always cracks me up when folks start calling bears big-boned. Like chubby chicks, the bones are the same size on the inside, just coated with a lot of fat.
