[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1260384, member: 4191"] Why a single bullet for both 600 yd caribou/moose and a less than 125 yd brown bear? If you're primary quarry is brown bear, it might be better to prioritize bullet selection for high velocity impacts on a 1,100lb bear. This wouldn't be the hunt I'd compromise bear stopping bullet performance by adding in the secondary application of use. Pick your best bear bullet. If that's not also a good 600 yd caribou/moose bullet, then select a 2nd bullet for the other game animals. Talk to your bear guides, who've likely seen more brown bears killed than the rest of us combined, before buying. There are a number of good, proven brown bear bullets, and not many will also be competitive for retained velocity at 600yds. [/QUOTE]
