[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1484630, member: 1656"] Is this confirmed?? If so then wow, just wow... Ironically on another (non-hunting-focused) shooting forum, I blocked some guy who was intent on defending the value of the 9mm as a grizz defense tool... Events like this really stick with me as I relate them back to my own experiences. Last season I was lucky enough to get a bull elk in the back country. Problem was my new hunting partner was not up to the task and ended up being much more a liability than an asset. We got back to camp 3-4 miles from the truck and he was intent to stay the night there...in a narrow pass grizz funnel, with a backpack full of bloody elk meat, and my clothes tainted with elk blood. I had no choice but to pass out in the tent for a few hours from sheer exhaustion from doing the work for both of us, but when I came to, I insisted we leave enough stuff behind that we could get us and the meat back to the truck and out of there. No way I was spending the night in grizz country smelling of elk blood... [/QUOTE]
