[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1104255, member: 2736"] I am a 416 guy and know what they will do. But considering the conditions you posted, I would still want a leaver action (Simple to use and very dependable) in one of the big bores or a 12 gauge pump shotgun in at least 3" mag with slugs. the 3'' will produce about 3000 ft/lbs of energy, and the 450 marlin produces 3700 ft/lbs. I have a 450 bushmaster upper on a AR 15 Lower and it is a bear for hogs but the best it can do is 27 to 2800 ft/lbs and I don't think that in a bad situation if I had a malfunction, that I could clear it fast enough. so I would not put it up against a big brown. Interesting post though. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
