[QUOTE="hunterbob, post: 558644, member: 38116"] 338 is good but I can't take the recoil. I like the Savage 308 for bear or deer. Shot placement is the key and easy on the shoulder for me. LOL I had always used a 308 for years and its got plenty of hurt down range for anything. My buddy shot a charging bear once with one, and the closer it got the 308 hit harder, The Grizzly charged from about 130 yards after the first hit. He said, he was nervous and didn't place the first shot good. LOL a toilet paper hunt. The bear dropped on his 3rd shot 25 yards from him. Like I say the closer the animal gets the more Ft Lbs of energy is kicking in. he said he was using 180 gr Silver tips. [/QUOTE]
