Default Alaska brown bear hunt

We got drawn for our AK brown bear hunt this fall. My brother guides on Kodiak & Raspberry Islands & we're doing a party hunt for brown bear & Blacktail deer. He recommends a .338 Win. Mag. and I'm inclined to follow his judgement. I'm thinking of purchasing a Winchester Mod. 70 .338 Win Mag Extreme Weather SS (composite stock, fluted SS barrel) like he has. For a scope, I'm thinking a Leupold 3.5-10x40 duplex recticle. Sound like a good combo? For the scope recticle, is standard duplex good or should I go w/ fine or heavy duplex? My vision is excellent & he said all their shots are under 200 yds.
