Not that I will probably get the chance to hunt there, but wondered what you fellas thoughts were on a 480 ruger carbine for medium range hunting and also protection? On one forum the alaskan fellas really pooh poohed it. On another they said it would be okay since out of a carbine it runs same energy as a 12ga slug( and with 400gn hardcast penetrates a lot better than a shotgun). I have owned 375 H&H previously so understand the dfference of a true dangerous game rifle. But does 480 get a pass?
