I live in Alaska also. I carry a S&W 629, .44 Mag and use the commercial "bear loads". After last years viewing of a rather large griz near Eureka, I am convinced that nothing is strong enough if the bear really wants you. This thing was a VW Beetle with teeth.
When shot placement can be the difference between life and death, I am more apt to recommend that you purchase a gun that you can shoot as much as possible.
As a last thought, a good 12ga with 00 then slugs is carried by more than one guide.
