Easy, 160 TTSX.

At close ranges it will open the widest and create the largest wound channel of the monos (killing bear quicker), and still likely exit.

Edit: the 160 has been very accurate out of my smaller 338. I wish I would have tried them in my 338-06. Should easily be near 3100 fps. My second choice would be a heavier cup and core, or softer front bullet. Again, maximizing damage to kill as quickly as possible would be my goal. My last choice in this scenario would be any heavy for caliber mono.
