[QUOTE="Brent, post: 3242, member: 99"] My Ruger 416wby and Remington 300 Ultra with 338-416 Rigby Imp switch barrel and bolt, the Ruger 4 5/8" Bisley Vaquero 500 Linebaugh for back up too. Sorry, that's as close to two guns as I could get. Big bears change things a little for me though. I've only had one moose not die instantly on the first shot with my 338wm in the past. He did go down, but got right back up when my brother put him down with his 338wm. This was the 4th moose killed at 350 yards, 4 years in a row in the almost same spot. A 338wm is not a bad choice, but just doesn't offer the stopping power the 416's do. Trajectory with the heavy 338wm bullets is comparable to the 416wby, and for medium range use, was for me a better choice with the kids always tagging along hunting with me. [/QUOTE]
