I found some fresh sign last time I was out.  Some busted up brush and grass all around some salmon berries and one track that was a little over 4 inches wide.  Of course the brush was so thick where I found the sign that I have no idea how to hunt it.  Gonna try blind calling if I cant find something else.

This will be my first year actively bear hunting. I plan on using my Remington .300 Win Mag. Any recommendations on grain? Is my .300 Win Mag to much? How about a 7mm?

Can't wait to get out and about though. Should be heading out next week for a couple of day scouting trips.

I shoot 165's out of my .300 win mag. Go with what shoots best out of your gun. Seem's like alot of guys shoot 180's out of their .300's.

180 grain bullets shoot great out of my 300 win mag....  had a hard time getting the 165's to group less than 1" @100 yrds....  But each rifle is different.  Go with what works best in your rifle.
