[QUOTE="akmtnhnt, post: 3063772, member: 120824"] Been around and hunted lots of brown bears? Seem them just shrug off 30-06 hits to the vitals? I bet more brown bears have been killed with a 30-06 than 375ruger rifles exist in Alaska. You can't even get that ammo. No one shoots it. 375h&h is only slightly less rare. I'd be less surprised if I came across someone with a 375 cheytac in a Barrett or Desert Tech lugging around a 30lb gun for that hero 1 mile moose shot that basically doesn't exist than to see someone carrying a 375 ruger. If you want to kill the bear instantly, the energy of the round is even less relevant. The only thing relevant is a CNS hit. With anything that can get to the CNS. 9mm with penetrators/hard cast does that. [/QUOTE]
