[QUOTE="emp1953, post: 2924198, member: 71817"] For a quick and deadly option for putting away a threatening bear, Black or Griz, you can't beat a 12ga pump action, maybe a Mossberg 500, which is reasonably priced, reliable, and will hold up just fine in a saddle scabbard or an ATV. If you are in that situation with a bear it's probably going to be close up and personal anyway. A couple of quick shots of 00 Buckshot in the face will keep a bear from doing you any harm. It will hold 5 really quick shots. The key will be keeping your wits about you in such an emotional, adrenalin-packed scenario. I suspect that if you find yourself in such a predicament, you will not notice any recoil as you protect yourself and your mount. [/QUOTE]
