the whole time I was in Alaska 2003 to 2010. I never felt undergunned with that weapon. 350 grains at 1250 fps give or take a little, it will take anything in Alaska and in addition, you have four follow up shots if you screw up and miss on the first one. Range is out to about 50 yards for me, but then it was my go to for anything up close an personal. For hunting, due to the distances where I was, I would recommend at least a .300 win mag with 165 + grain bullets. If you are shooting beyond 300 yards you will be most likely having to track wounded game in an area filled with brown and black bears as well as wolf. Not my idea of an ideal hunt.
