[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 2467535, member: 64108"] In the case of the moose perhaps bear spray would have helped after the initial attack. Really not sure what a .380 was for but emptying it in his chest wasn't going to work. Years ago I played hide in the close together pine trees for 15 minutes with a big bull near Sand Point ID. I could have shot him in the wind pipe, eye, or rib/lung with a .380 as I was safe only 8 feet away and could have safely picked good shots after the charge if I didn't dump the mag early. Friends up there had a few champ chocolate labs get stomped out and one bull did a number on his parked truck with the plow on it for some reason, never hit the other vehicles but the plow truck caught hell three times. I think if my dogs were getting attacked for an hour I would have made a spear and rammed it into his belly, tough way to learn. [/QUOTE]
