[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1643817, member: 103947"] Read back to approximately 2013-2016 sometime I recall a fishing guide in Alaska guiding husband and wife on a salmon trip. Walked into a dangerous Grizzly scenario. Grizzly rushed the woman and the guide got off 5-7 shots with his 9mm semi loaded with 147 Hardcast bullets. First shot hit the bruins neck and following rounds hit the bear center mass as it spun. Last shot ended up in the bears pelvic area. Bear dropped dead 6' from the last shot. Not sure how big the bear was but it's said it was an adult bruin. This bear was shot and killed by a 9mm semi auto with 5-7 rds. Range was about 10 ft if I remember correctly. Much too close for any kind of comfort. Important part is, carry adequate power that you can shoot proficiently several times rapidly. I don't personally consider a 9mm ti be adequate in grizzly country but he made it work. [/QUOTE]
