[QUOTE="jwp475, post: 196262, member: 3776"] Why do you tink that a 308 Norma Mag is not adequate for Grizzly bears? Here is what Phil Shoemaker has to say about the effectiveness of the 30-06 on Alskan Brown bears.. Oh Yea Phil is a Brown Bear Guide and has been doing so for many years.. [url=http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/2013576/Board/33/page/2/fpart/all/gonew/1#UNREAD]24hourcampfire: 300 RUM for Brown Bear hunt[/url] #2041642 - 02/24/08 03:09 PM Re: 300 RUM for Brown Bear hunt [Re: jwp475] 458Win 458Win Campfire Regular Registered: 01/04/05 Posts: 525 Loc: Circle Hot Spring, AK Offline The bears today are no larger or tougher than the bears of 50 years ago when the 30-06 was by far the most popular rifle carried by Alaskan guides. Andy Simms and Hosea Sarber and a hundred others found nothing wanting with the 30-06 then, and now, with the bullets we have today, the 30-06 is even better. Contrary to some opinions, guides who recommend 30 calibers for bears do so to insure that they do not have to shoot their client's bears. ANYONE WHO CLAIMS THE 30-06 IS INNEFFECTIVE HAS EITHER NOT TRIED ONE - OR IS UNINTENTIALLY COMMENTING ON THEIR MARKSMANSHIP. _________________________ Phil Shoemaker [/QUOTE]
