Default RE: 338 Mag not enough for Brown Bears

If one hunts with a single shot, should one move up a bit in caliber? I know shot placement and bullet construction is all important, but given the lack of a quick second shot does it not make sense for the single shot hunter to use a 7 mm or 300 mag on antelope and a 375 HH on a large bear (assuming in both cases the hunter can shoot accurately)?
