[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 587415, member: 8394"] well, the first thing that hits me is how fast that 330 is going. I've seen that fast with that size bullet, but not in a 7 inch barrel (ruger 44 mag rifle). Seems like they must be runing the ragged edge of pressure to get that. I've no doubt that a good alloy cas bullet does penetrate but as a primary over a 375? As for use on big bears.... their little paragraph says it has been used as defense for grizzly bears. Heck if I'm close to a big bear anything that goes bang would make me feel better, but the 375 with a partition/a frame is the gold standard. In a hunting situation with a guy packing a 375 or bigger next to me sure id try a 44mag. Angry old bear that is accidentially jumped when were beach combing on the Alaska Peninsula.... I'll just pack the ol 375. To each their own. Mine is a 375 ruger cranking partitions to 2780.... [/QUOTE]
