Default RE: best gun for moose and bear

HOLY COW!!! a 10' brownie? thats gonna take alot of milk. haha. seriously though, thanks for all the good info. Im actually gonna be at Ft. Wainwright in Fairbanks. I knew about the kodiak tag but i intend on maintaining my residency and probably having to fly back up there after i leave in 3 yrs to hunt them so i figured i should just go ahead and get the right gun. I currently shoot a .270 but was just a little concerned about shooting something as large as a moose. I know that a well placed shot from almost any gun will work but we all know that stuff happens and the ABSOLUTE last thing i want to do is wound a animal. I just wanna have enough gun that if i do miss my mark by a little that it will still give the animal the repect it deserves. Once again, thanks for the info. Jimmy
