[QUOTE="Paparock, post: 1525510, member: 106235"] Look [COLOR=#009000][COLOR=#000000][B]26Reload[/B], I don't where you live and if you have ever seen an actual Grizzly. However you don't tangle with one lightly even if you carry a .375 H&H like I did. I have seen them throwing boulders half the size of a Volkswagen Beatle out of their way as they dig for mountain marmots. You can fit the stories of them soaking up 5 or more vital hits from .338 and .375 Magnum rifles while covering some impressive distances. If those distances happen to be toward you and you were already close they can do some un-godly damage despite being shot to pieces. So if you can avoid a fight where shooting one is already questionable it is far better to learn their behavior about how and when to back away. I don't care if you are caring a .416 Weatherby and you can shoot it as if it were a .22LR there is zero guarantee you will survive an all out death match with a determined Grizzly. As they say "stuff happens" so be careful what you start. A Grizzly can break a Moose's neck with one paw strike so what do you think he can do to you?
