[QUOTE="kolob10, post: 1671654, member: 27227"] S&W 629 4" with 240gr or 300gr hard cast bullets. I have a 454 Casul but it is single action and repeat shots are too slow to manage. I hunt in grizzly country sometimes but do not feel even the 44 would be adequate to stop a charging grizzly. They are big tough animals! I have been within 50 yards of a grizzly while stand hunting. Luckily he was more interested in following a bleeding elk. I don't think he even noticed me sitting against a huge boulder. I had a .270 Winchester bolt rifle in my lap and my 44 On my belt. Neither gave me much confidence. [/QUOTE]
