[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1919645, member: 103947"] Shots on target are more important than how big the bore is. I've done a lot of training with big bore revolvers and a lot of training with the 10 mm glock. You can bet that if I put enough bullets on target with the big bore revolver shooting fast with a heavy heart beat, I'd stick with a revolver. Plain and simple I can put 3/4 of my bullets in a 6 inch circle when I'm very winded and my heart is beating very fast. I've only been able to put one bullet out of six and that same 6 inch circle inconsistently maybe twice out of the several dozen times I've done this test. Arguably maybe one shot would be all I would need on a charging bear, however I prefer 10 to 15 rounds in that 6" circle on a charging bear. All this was done at 12 to 15 yards. I use a rolling automobile tire at 20 yard the range rolling straight at me while I'm making these shots. Even though my shots are hitting a Target at that 15 yard range, I only shoot until the tire reaches me. It's fast shooting and most times only get off 10-13 rounds. Usually only 3-5 with the 44 magnum. [/QUOTE]
