[QUOTE="WV Hitman, post: 2873440, member: 115208"] My guide wouldn't let me bring my .416 Taylor handgun for my last brown bear. Said handguns are too light for them, plus they'd take multiple shots. DEmanded I bring a large handgun (I don't own/haven't shot a rifle since 1978) that had multiple rounds ready. I took my Taurus Raging Bull .500 S&W using 375 gr. X bullets. Took this 8 footer at 129 yds. with 1 shot from the little island over my shoulder (was fishing).. Also shot a charging brownie a few years ago at 25 yards with a .375 JDJ Contender and a 285 gr. Speer Grand Slam. Dropped him with a frontal chest shot. Big calibers/bullets work quite well. The .375 Ruger would be my choice if I used rifles. Accubonds and Xs are head & shoulders above other bullets.[ATTACH type="full"]482862[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
