Heading to Alaska in September with three of my buddies for a DIY moose/caribou hunt. Black bears and wolves are on the menu as well. (Griz are off limits to non-residents.) 
Planned on taking my 300 WBY. in the event I get a shot at Bullwinkle. I have always used 180 gr Spire Points in the past for elk and black bear. They have performed o.k. for me in the past. I recently purchased some Hornady GMX 180 gr bullets to see how they shoot. From what I have read they are a good solid bullet better suited if heavy bone is encountered. My question is; If the GMX's shoot good, would you recommend using them over the Spire Points? Just checking to see who has experienced these bullets in hunting situations first hand and what your thoughts are.
Thanx, Joe
