Two old pals have had close range grizzly encounters while hunting "something else".Both had 270's. One was charged and killed the bear at about 20 yards with a 130 Bitterroot (predecessor to things like Aframes, Northforks etc).
The other used a 130 NPT at about 30 yards.Both bears were killed very quickly.
Gaining a lot of experience on grizzlies is hard to do unless you live/guide among them.So I don't have a lot of experience with grizzlies/brown bears,having killed only two.I shot them with Nosler Partitions and Bitterroots.
If I ever kill another (doubtful)it will be with one of those two bullets.
