[QUOTE="RustyRick, post: 956274, member: 69572"] From one who ranched in bear country, and believes and experience taught that the only good bear is a dead one. We all know that 38's or 9mm aren't even good man stoppers, let alone trying to stop a bear in the defence situation we're talking about. So unless it's Mag'natized you may as well leave it home. If your in a tree stand and it comes to a bear coming up the ladder to visit you, well maybe.... But we're not talking of a hunting situation here. We're talking DEFENCE!!! Close range stuff. That means we in a 911 quickly deteriorating split second decision time under great duress. Unless your a COOL experienced hunter/guide, YOU, NO ONE knows how he or she will respond to the adrenalin rush of that terrifying moment. It demands a secure killing (probably one shot) chance. So don't take marginal insurance! You better be over gunned. And a that means the likes of a 45-70 or a defender shotgun. Loaded with a Slug first and alternating buck shot (like shooting chain saws) slugs. And you still need to make sure your COOL enough to make the first shot very meaning full. [/QUOTE]
