That's exactly what I use to hunt Kodiak deer. A Mod. 70 FW 338-06 loaded with 250NP @ around 2600fps. It works great on deer with little meat damage, also works good on black bear, caribou and moose. So far I haven't had to try it on brown bear fortunately. When I shot my brownie I used my .375 HH with 300NP. --- Mel


The only thing I'm an expert at is my own opinion, and I have plenty of those!
