[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1221540, member: 4191"] I've hunted brown, grizzly, and black bear, successfully multiple times on each species. If the distance is 10yds and I have to stop a death charge, it's a 12gauge Rem 870 with the fancy-shmancy slugs - if you're referring to the 1 3/8oz Brenneke Special Forces Maximum Barrier Penetration slugs. Brenneke slugs are the standard and respected load for bear guards in my part of Alaska, where the bear guard is only there to stop the bears as a last resort, at point blank range. It's the standard of choice for the local F&G officer when called out to respond to bear complaint problems, which can result in a bear killing. You must be hunting D-8 Cats on Afognak if your sniveling at this firearm, with these slugs. I'm not alleging this firearm and slug is the best choice for hunting brown bear where shots are at longer yardage. The scenario posed was a 10' Brown Bear in the alders at 10 feet. It's my first choice for a bear stopper when the bear is up in my face and the bear dies, or I die. [/QUOTE]
