[QUOTE="Guy M, post: 3043632, member: 8622"] Brooks Range grizz, several shots all under 50 yards. 30-06 with 200 gr Nosler Partitions loaded to 2600 fps. I didn't do the greatest job of shooting. Missed with my hurried first shot. Next shot broke his fore-leg. Bear went down then almost as quickly was back up! Made a crummy shot - what they called a "grazing" wound in the old westerns. Busted him down with another shot. He stayed down, but my rifle was empty. I started to reload. Guide handed me his 338 with 225 gr TSX's and let me finish the bear at about 15 yards or so with it. Heck of a rodeo on day 7 of a 9 day hunt. Worth every moment and every penny I'd saved for the trip. Use good bullets, I'd be happy with most "premiums" and of course with the good monos. Shoot better than I did. Enjoy your hunt! Guy [/QUOTE]
