    The .338 Lapua is ballistically superior to the 30-06 , both can take a Brown( Grizzly) bear loaded correctly . Cartridge height means nothing from a ballistic standpoint other than the length of the action on the rifle , shorter cartridge = shorter action which allows for a faster bolt throw. There are short magnum cartridges that outperform their longer counterparts

    They both suck. Get a .458 Lott.

    .416 Rigby ...or hell go for broke with a .460 Nitro.

    Seriously IMHO anything bigger than a .300 Win Mag or .300 Weatherby Mag is a bit heavy for North American game . That being said to each their own and I’ve hunted with folks with larger who didn’t mind the heavier recoil.

    This can’t even be a serious question.

    When facing a bear, the proper weapon to use is always "something bigger." C'mon, it's a freakin' bear !
