I never hunted POW, but have hunted Admiralty Island twice. After seeing pie-plate sized bear poop on the trails I was glad to be carrying a 338-06 with 225 Accubonds the first time and a 300 Weatherby with 180 TSXs the second time.
There is a big difference in the minimum caliber rifle you want on the ABC Islands vs POW. .30 cal. is my standard.
