[QUOTE="dakor, post: 10636, member: 2204"] My stopping gun is going to be a 12 gauge with 3 inch sabot slugs. If we have to track a bear if I am lucky enough to shoot one I will trade guns and carry the 12 I dont like the idea of a scope in the thick stuff. My 12 holds 5 shots and it is a semi auto if that doesnt stop him if there is a charge I dont think anything will. I just hope it drops on the first shot from the 300 or 375 and there is no tracking. As for a 200 yard shot I was pretty much torn apart on another forum for wanting to shoot from that distance I was told that is to far. I did not think that would be to far for either gun they still has lots of energy. I guess if I am out in the open and need to take a 200 yard shot they said that would be alright [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img] I guess I will have to wait until I am up there and see what happends. Brent that area you told me about is it mostly open or the thick stuff and what do you think is a good shooting distance? Also are there lots of hunters? Brent you also said you hunt Moose alot can you kinda explain the antler restrictions to me in that area because it is confusing on how the book describes it [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img] That is my back up plan if I cannot get a Brown Bear I wouldnt mind shooting a Moose or a black since you can use the tag for one of the three.
