Buffalo vs. Coastal Brown Bear
Buffalo hunters were content to get them dead, even if it took a few hours. A 900 pound highly ticked off Grizzly that has turned predator is different....especially if YOU are the prey.
Remington 760 chambered in 35 Whelen would be a good choice. Fast follow up shots.

Since those are hard to come by, I'd go with a .458 Lott. I'd think a .375 H&H would be a minimum. Like others have said a PO'ed bear isn't something you want to take chances on and they don't call them grizzly for nothing...
