[QUOTE="UplandFreak, post: 1864509, member: 111854"] That contradicts about everything I have read recently. A lot of alaskan natives are switching to a glock 20 because of the capacity. They are claiming 15 rounds is better than 5 or six and a 220 gr hardcast from a 10mm still has plenty of penetration to make it to the vitals or penetrate the skull into the brain. Really the latter is what is going to stop the bear. So would you rather have 15 tries at hitting a small moving target like a brain or 5? Penetration into the brain is penetration into the brain - doesnt matter if it is with a 180gr projectile or a 300gr projectile. I would rather have 15 shots while be able to acquire my site picture faster for follow-up shots. [/QUOTE]
