[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2570299, member: 103947"] Technology is amazing. While your imagining that the 3.5 gas engine vs the 7.3 diesel in towing is comparable is very unrealistic, the cartridge performance and bullet construction is not. This discussion on the 45 vs Brown bear is a personal choice. Not that I'm saying I'd use a 9mm for defense against a brown bear but it's happened and succeeded in killing them in charges. The 45 will achieve the same with proper bullets and loads. Accuracy is the most important part. Very controversial of course on which defense pistol but confidence and the right load makes the most difference given the cartridge can penetrate heavy bone. I'd say number of rounds on target is important so practice will make a big difference also in making that happen. Use the biggest pistol cartridge you can accurately shoot. [/QUOTE]
