Well... I'd still probably want to take my .338WM for brown bears (I've never hunted them and probably never will) but for anything else in NA inside 300yds (for me... for others maybe even farther), the .338 Fed with 200/210gr (particularly copper bullets) should do just fine.

And yeah... if you already have a 300WM or WSM or whatever and are happy, there's no reason to run out and get anything else.
