A caliber question for you. An old friend called recently

and said he was getting a group of 4 handgunners together for a Grizzly hunt in Sept. I hated to pass it up but not knowing if my vision problem will be cleared up by then, or if the vision problem would be cleared up, period. So
I had to pass. He needed to know by March 1st so I had no choice but to pass.

This brings up a question. If you were on a Grizzly hunt in Alaska, limited to a handgun, what 2 calibers would you choose? If I didn't pass on this hunt My two calibers would be the 476 GNR in a 15" Encore barrel at almost 1800 FPS. The second one would be my old stand-by 510 GNR revolver, strictly as a back up with the 350 JSP at almost 1300 FPS. I had taken an African lion with this revolver so if I did my part it would be up to me.
If you were going on this Grizzly hunt what 2 calibers would you take with you? Seriously, no jokes.
