[QUOTE="Brent, post: 10641, member: 99"] No sweat, hope you have a good time when you get here. Well, you might have found a grey area there. I'll check on that, I honestly don't know. Yeah, you'd probably never have a problem but, the 870 is the best bet. Wish I still had mine, but my Winny serves it's purpose just the same. It is definitely an awakening when you know it's all up to them whether or not you're their next lunch. My Dad was watching a Grizz once when I was young, him and my Mom. It was about 200 yards away off the road by a pull off down the hill. All of a sudden the Grizz turned and was at a dead run towad them and they run around the car and jump in just in time to see the Bear in right in front of them going to town digging after a ground sqirrel!!! Haha, they thought "they" were on the menu and didn't even see the squirrel. He said it didn't take that Grizz 5 seconds to top the hill, scared the hell out of 'em both. Down on the chain 10-15 years ago my Dad was building a runway for an airport. They'd see a Big Brown on the runway and the boss, Kemper, he'd take off and catch up with him in the pickup. He said even the big ones would run side by side the length of that runway right at 40 mph, never let up the whole way. He said what was even more impressive was they hit 40 at the snap of the fingers. [/QUOTE]
