[QUOTE="sp6x6, post: 1604791, member: 21869"] Ive been bluff charged a few times and always had my sites on bear,put lead right between their feet.With my rifle,know people how have been charged by bear and cat and killed them,one shooting from hip.My personal hunting buddy shot a cat cow called in with long bow at 8 yrds,we turned it in,just sank down and lowered it ears back when yelling at it.In the case of bear I sent lead at ,as I related story to a person I new from F&G,found out a grizzly had been recently let loose there that had been rubber bullet hazed.The bear I stopped that day ran out to 100 yrds then came back prancing and popping his teeth,there where at least 4 bears I could hear from all the puffing going on and at one point a grizz fight broke out.Ibacked out obout 100 yrds and then yes I trotted out about 2 miles before dark.I hunt high for muley so I have hundreds of climbs in the dark,multiple times big grizz in fresh snow have smelt me,obvious by tracks and stepped off horse trail and let me pass.There are many videos out of guides etc shooting charging bears or other dangerous game.Ive been on multiple arrow and rifle shot bear recoveries and had only bow due to getting threw canada a pain with firearm,not a very fun deal,looking for a big bear in a rain forest that way.
