[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 3100897, member: 4191"] Anybody thinks Phil is recommending 9mm with any bullet, to stop a completely determined brown or grizzly bear charge, misinterpreted his interview statements. I recall him stating it would be suicidal to go into the brush after any wounded bear with the 9mm. He killed a less than determined brown bear, a bear that wasn't coming after him, with multiple lung shots from a 9mm. That bear offered Phil ample time to make multiple broadside lung shots. Fortunate for his clients this bear never engaged in physical contact. No mauling whatsoever during the period of time from the first shot fired until loss of consciousness. Had this bear lit into his clients over that period of time, I doubt Phil would be discussing the incident in any interview. Out of respect for the maimed, or dead. He did demonstrate that multiple 9mm bullets capable of penetrating both lungs of a broadside profile brown bear can kill the bear. Nothing more. Nothing less. [/QUOTE]
