[QUOTE="Taj, post: 3036056, member: 98000"] It's great if you all want to carry a semi-truck full of ammo but from talking to a good friend with Alaska Game and Fish, the average guy gets off about 3 rounds between the time he realizes a charge and the bear is standing in the middle of his chest. As far as revolver vs auto-stuffer goes, I have visions of a self induced stoppage with an auto due to either a contact shot, bear hair caught in the slide , weird /bad grip or what ever, and wonder if anyone practices clearing one of those stoppages with one hand....because the other hand is stuffed down the bear's throat, probably up to their elbow...just sayin'. I like auto's and carry one daily. When I'm worried about Mr. Bruin I thing I'll stay with my .44 mangrum wheelie-gun. If I have a failure to fire for some unfathomable reason, ( like an angel ****ed on my primer) I can clear it with one finger. [/QUOTE]
