I have been shot by a BB gun. My childhood was kind of like the Wild West. If I went crazy on the shooter, I wouldn’t chance it with a bear. But, your results may vary.

Holmes nemesis, Colonel Moran, used his air rifle extensively to settle scores in Merry Olde London.

BB is the size of the round shot fired from a BB gun. It is .177” dia.

I enjoyed the article but that was no BB gun.

There’s a famous story of a kid, only 3 years old, who killed him a “bahr”.

The dogs are going and going, trying to get close to a bear and chasing it until it climbs a tree to get away from the dogs. Bears run faster than dogs, but they know dogs don’t climb trees, so they’ll take refuge up a tree until the dogs leave.

So big coons basically

Just bookmarked it.

Fascinating!

I believe in reincarnation and I think that I lived in the Old West.

I am drawn to that period in time.

nice read BUT you never shoot the bear out with dogs still treeing under the tree ( you can guess why )..ya got to leash them and pulled them off the tree...that will put hair on your chest pulling dogs off a bear tree...a skinned bear looks like a skinned human being...still have a bear penis tooth pick...we have some real bear dog persons in this forum

Why did the bear have a BB gun?

BFL. But I can say, I caught the ricochet from my old Daisy lever-action BB rifle when I was a kid (it’s still functional and in my late dad’s old bedroom closet, BTW) and it stung like hell.

Be thankful it was only a bear with a bb gun and not a bear with a high powered rifle! Us more heavily armed bears are not so easy!
