Good stuff.
Heading to AK in 10 days to try put down a black and brown bear.
Cant wait...

Jeff, enjoy your hunt. What will you be shooting? Please tell us it's a 99 in 358!  Wish I was there with you bud. Here's a link to our hunt. As tough as it gets for this old dude. Not many hunts like this left in my worn out body! http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/8881457#Post8881457

I think RAS should use one of those 1895's!

No, I am limited to a 50lb bag and ONE gun for the tiny plane that I will be on to get to the camp site. Since brown bear is in the mix, I am bringing my custom Garrett Acur-Lite rifle in 375 H&H. It is an easy MOA gun. Area 16 in AK.

I'm guessing that when one is face-to-face with Br'er Bear nothing one is holding in one's hands will seem too powerful. Good luck, Jeff. (Personally I would just use the .22 Hi Power.  ) FB- I'm always envious of your hunting pics- you are blessed with some world class scenery. (I can't imagine the effort required to get a downed animal out of that scenery though!)

Jeff, you'll do great. Take plenty of photos since some don't turn out. We'll be needing a report!  Carry a predator call and have some fun with it!
