I've been reading all thes posts and have to say I go towards the heavy side. I know people kill all kinds of animals with 243's, BB guns whatever, but if the animal can kill you, wouldnt you rather err to the large side? It dont matter what animal you are hunting, choosing proper bullet construction and proper bulet placement are vital.. However, if a animal that can kill you is coming after you, he may not give you that shot placement. In that case I would want the biggest, baddest gun I can handle and shoot. I haven't hunted brownies or grizzlies either, but I hope to someday, and I see that as a great excuse for a new rifle (sooner the better for practice right?) and I think a 375 H&H will be the choice... Big suprise I go bigger, I work on tanks that shoot a 120mm round, and there second largest weapon is a 50 cal!!!!
