[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 2759612, member: 69192"] Zeeman, thanks for writing this follow up it is much appreciated. I saw the original date on the original post and was curious if you’d made any decisions on what cartridge you chose to go with?? I have friends who do a grizzly hunt through a drop camp every year; one is a registered Alaskan guide. These friends started out with 300 WinMags until one of the hunters got mauled and nearly killed by a wounded grizzly. They are all now hunting with controlled feed .338 WinMags after the extractor failed on a Browning X-bolt (?) and left a fired round in the chamber. I’ve never hunted grizzly and will never be able to afford such a hunt, however if I were ever fortunate enough to go I’d take a close look at the .375 Ruger. The ballistics are comparable to those of a 375 H&H, and the 375 Ruger comes in a long action instead of the magnum action of the 375 H&H. Just my .02c worth. [/QUOTE]
