[QUOTE="Tailgunner, post: 72748, member: 606"] CEG First thing is "Thank You" Second thing is that I have never hunted bear, and am a mid-range deer shooter. Third thing is that one of my Amish friends used to guide bear hunts in AK (Kodiak Island?), and he always said that he prefered a client that used a 30-06/300WM class rifle and could handle a 2-300yd shot over some guy with a "Mega-Magnum" that was so afraid of the recoil that he couldn't hit a 5 gal pail at 25yd. BTW, he used a 375H&H for his "stopper" rifle. Point being that if your proficiant with your weapon your further ahead than someone that's over gunned, regardless of the range involved. Good luck, and have fun hunting in AK. [/QUOTE]
