African or alaska the first time, Cow elk with the 454rb for my first handgun kill, but really the most memorable was my oldest son's blackbear hunt. He hunted hard all week, disappointment after disappointment and finally the laaaast night he gets his bear covering over 9 miles of mountains at a pace i could not keep. He ended with a drt there shot with his 454 bfr at 55 yards in fading light in the rain offhand timing it bw dogs and the bear fighting. Guide was blown away. I havent been that proud on a hunt in a long time. Iron sights too btw
