Proper Alaska Big Game Hunting Equipment Begins With The Right Rifle.

In preparing for an Alaska hunting adventure, there is probably no more discussed topic than what rifle to take for the animal you are hunting. Alaskans notoriously prefer large caliber rifles no doubt because of the size of the animals they typically harvest including of course Alaskan brown bears and grizzlies. While the big bears have been taken with guns as small as a .223, the larger calibers for bears are much preferred such as the .375 H & H or the .338 Win Mag. For moose hunting, the same larger calibers work quite well and even a 7mm Mag or .300 Weatherby or Win Mag would be adequate. The latter calibers are also quite good for dall sheep or caribou hunting as the shooting ranges can be quite long and a flat shooting gun works best. Your selection of a hunting rifle and equipment becomes more problematic when you have booked a combination hunt for 2 or more species of animals.

Space does not permit a full consideration of all the variables one should consider in selecting the proper rifle and outdoor equipment for your hunting trip and it is recommended that the reader carefully review some of the many outdoor books available on the subject and talk to a registered Alaskan hunting guide. Below you will find Alaska Hunting, Fishing, Camping and Outdoor Gear at competitive prices.
