[QUOTE="X-man, post: 350384, member: 8416"] I spent some of the best years of my life in hip waders looking for the perfect coastal bear... I never used a 338 on grizz, but if I did it would be either the 250TSX, or 275 Swift. At high velocities Partitions tend to leave the front nose cavity in the entrance fur and then punch a small hole in the vitals. Wet bears are murder on bullets. Mountain bears are usually much smaller and the dry fur is much easier to get through. A 30-06 is a nice size for mountain bears. If you hunt coastal bears I would prefer a 375. FWIW I pack a 416. Although we now have to contend with a limited entry draw, we can still self hunt here in B.C. [/QUOTE]
