[QUOTE="XSIVSPD, post: 2021112, member: 98308"] I'll say it again. I'll take the biggest caliber that I'm PROFICIENT with. For me, that's my 10mm or a 460 Rowland. For many people that's a 9mm. If they can get 4-6 aimed-ish shots off on a bear vs 1 from a 500s&w they're far more likely to stop a charging bear with the 9mm. After all, short of a shot to the central nervous system to turn a brown bear off, you'd have to literally blow a leg off to get one to stop. If you think a heart shot bear won't charge for another 1+ minutes you need to do some research. The 9mm with some good lead hardcast is the right choice for a lot of people. [/QUOTE]
