[QUOTE="gyrfalcon, post: 2387015, member: 120244"] Precisely my thoughts. Besides many guides will not let their customers shoot at dangerous game past 100yards. Who do you think has to dig that wounded grizzly out of the alders? A well placed shot from an 06, 300 win mag or .338 Win will do just fine. In the Canadian Arctic I have never seen a local Inuit polar bear hunter with anything bigger then a 30-06. Only tourist hunters bring the elephant guns, evoking giggles and ridicule from local hunters. Polar bears hit in the heart lung area with a good 180 grain bullet die within 1.5 minutes with no fight left during that time. [/QUOTE]
