RB for Grizzly
« on: April 12, 2005, 08:05:00 PM »
I'm going to be carrying my RB in 454 in two weeks when we go into the Alaska Range looking for bear.  Hope to get close enough to take one with the RB.  I'll be using the Winchester ammo with the 260gr Nosler Partition Gold.  If I use a heavier bullet I don't feel I'd be able to make a follow-up shot if neccessary, too much shock to the hand.

A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

Spot and stalk.  We will be hunting from snowmachines.  The bears should  just be coming out.  The area where we will be going will have both Blacks and Grizzlies.  My partner will be backing me up with a .378 Weatherby.
