[QUOTE="cowboy, post: 1514682, member: 8833"] I have hunted, camped, horsebacked, hiked and had a cabin in full fledged griz central for the last 40 years. When it comes to having a bear encounter you can count on it happening when you least expect it and you will not have a moments notice to think. You can also count on the fact that there will be a wind blowing, so with bear spray you are betting your life on which way the wind is blowing. I pack it all the time. I worked in Yellowstone Park as a contractor for over 20 years and got to know a lot of the "bear experts", one of them told me caliber wasn't as important as long as the model was an 870. If your going to carry a side arm - carry it so it is accessible at all times. It does you no good to have it in a pack or on a pack that is not in arms reach, let alone not having one in the chamber. Never was a fan of any "auto jammer" sidearm, always preferred a double action wheel gun. Having a son with many years in the Marines he has convinced me enough that starting this spring I'll be packing a new auto jammer in 460 Rowland on a S&W frame with a leg holster along with bear spray.
