[QUOTE="DirectDrive, post: 2033878, member: 116300"] I've never been attacked by a Griz, but reading the accounts of folks getting jumped by bears, the range is close. 10 - 20 yards comes to mind. I have a Smith 629 (44 mag), Dan Wesson .357 and a Glock G20 (10mm) If I was going into Griz country, I'd get a Kenai chest rig (kydex) and carry my G20. I have found the G20 to be very easy to handle and shoot accurately. And you are 15+1 on ammo....you won't be getting into a running gunfight out there, but it's comforting to have the firepower. Whatever you choose to carry, practice and get good with it. Then make sure you can GET IT DEPLOYED QUICKLY when you are on your hunt. You don't put it in a backpack or fanny pack. Get a chest rig and KEEP A ROUND IN THE CHAMBER if you choose the G20. [/QUOTE]
