I think "scare" was more accurate. Dang.

I never noticed that, but I don't currently own any .44 mag caliber weapons. Lots of others, but nothing in the caliber of Clint.

Yep, that's it!

They may have another name now, everything gets reinvented and needs a cooler name, but that's a semi-jacketed wadcutter. Great round.

Spdloader did pass the time by typing:

I've been eyeing a sweet .454 Casule. Only drawback is the max caliber you can conceal carry under Oklahoma law is .45 :/

My very favorite caliber, is the .45

For concealed carry, I have an accurized, balanced, Novak'd Colt Officers ACP

I owned a couple of the .454's I have been "gun poor" a time or two in my life.

I just favor the .45 now.

My favorite anti-bear weapon is the Polaris Sportsman 700.

You don't need to conceal carry for grizzly. They are not that smart. ;^)

It doesn't surprise me, the old native american grizzly claw necklaces were notable for the way in which the wearer harvested them--kinda like modern kids steal lights off cop cars. They can be killed with a .22 as well. The folklore is that when they get ticked off they become much like a crack addict overdosed on meth. I've only been treed once and wasn't particularly interested in the .22 theory.

Earle Horton proclaimed:

I believe the stereotypical method is to shoot it thru the roof of the mouth. Of the folks who actually had to go after the problem bears back before tranq guns, most used 12 guage magnum and double buck shot, with trained bear dogs. A 7 mm or 300 magnum works pretty good, it can lift the bear completely off its feet with an uphill shot.

Kate proclaimed:

Not that unusual a tale. Seems deer take offense at being shot as well, and can rip a hunter to ribbons rather quickly. Not that afraid of even a grizzly, but I really would prefer to stay away from a senior bull moose in the fall--not even the grizzlies are stupid enough to tackle those mellow marsh munchers.
