I have not hunted bears but have taken a Cape buff and 2 Elephants all with a 416 Rigby and Woodleigh 400grain Hydros. No complaints from me of the animals. So not a large selection to base opinions on. I am of the mind that with Dangerous Game the largest and most powerful cartridge you can handle reliably is the one to use with a very good stout soft nose or some thing similar to the Hydros or solid with a decent size metplat.

However I hear a lot of people say the 9.3X62 is as good as a 375H&H. Well if that is the case so is a 358Norma Mag. Reasoning: The difference between the 358 Norma and the 375H&H are almost identical so then a 358 Norma must be as good as a 9.3X62 and if the 9.3X62 is as good as a 375H&H then so must the 358Norma.

There is a bloke who manages a Station on Cape York Peninsular. He shoots more pigs and wild cattle than most and uses 9.3X62, 375 H&H, 458 Win and others. His view is the 9.3 is a bloody good round but it is not a 375H&H.

Now if somebody said to me a 9.3X64 is as good as a 375H&H I would not argue with them.
