[QUOTE="Brad Quarnberg, post: 2882447, member: 107866"] I lived in and hunted all over Alaska for 18 years. I had bear baits for the majority of that time. I carried a 12-gauge shotgun when checking the baits. When hunting I always used a 300 WM or 300 WSM, and that was the minimum I'd carry because of the possibility of running into a grizzly. I killed a grizzly at 200yards with a 300WM shooting 200g grand slams and later accubonds which was my main caliber and bullet weight of choice. I don't think you'll ever convince someone who thinks the 6.5 is the perfect Elk or Grizzly caliber that it's not. But I saw firsthand and also read many stories of guys shooting and wounding bears, even black bears with even large caliber rounds, then get mauled or killed. i want the biggest caliber and bullet weight I can shoot very well if I'm in Grizz Country.
