I'd be willing to bet anybody who's actually killed griz or coastal browns wouldnt recommend a .223.
Elk, black bear, moose sure. Griz no. Would it kill one? Yes. Would you be tracking it through the brush, most likely. They are substantially thicker skinned/muscled than species listed above.
I really like/agree with this thread but disagree with this idea. Based on personal first hand experience. I can shoot a suppressed .30 cal comfortably which would turn it to a bang flop ordeal instead of, let's see what happens.
