Big brown bear require a lights-out CNS shot, or a big bore heavy hitter, and even then one shot stops cannot be counted on. There's always outliers - like the guy on the Kenai (or maybe it was the Russian River) years ago who dropped a charging bear with a 9mm (lucky shot that penetrated a hole in the bear's skull, either eye or snout, can't remember which, exactly) and managed to hit the brain.

Moose are another big game animal that you cannot count on handguns or small bore rifles to take down adequately. People don't give moose the respect they deserve as a dangerous animal, they think they're just big goofy looking deer, nevermind that they weigh as much as a small car and a kick from them hits harder than a pistol round.

Alaska is just a big frozen Australia where the weather and the animals all want to kill you. Don't mess around.
