DM,

Yep decisions, decisions...If there are big brown bears around, I'll take the 9.3!

Nice to hear from somrone who's hunted this country with a drilling. Contrary to popular belief, a stainless/synthetic gun is not mandatory to hunt in AK. If you truly enjoy hunting with the classics, it can be done; you just have to want to do it, and be willing to make the extra effort to care for them in the feild.

Rehards,

Jeff
