[QUOTE="458win, post: 2024695, member: 3423"] Wise man. If your using a pistol on a bear if you get off more then 3rds the bear wasn’t a threat to you. To each there own but I see it time and time again that the argument for a 10mm is how many rounds in the magazine. When a bear is on top chewing on you and your 10 goes click or jams from the 4-5” long hair it’s game over. Wheel gun goes click just pull the trigger again. More about shot placement then what caliber your packing. Had a grizzly this spring take 7rds of 375HH. Sounds like a tough bear right? No. Wasn’t until the guy hit it through the lungs and shoulder the 6th round before it stopped and he put one more in. The other 5 hit paws, legs and just about everywhere else. Can’t believe this thread made it 33 pages! If you take proper precautions in grizzly country your more likely to get killed in a car wreck on the way there then by a bear. [/QUOTE]
