Say all one had was a S&W 40 cal carried for protection. What type of ammunition would make the best out of a bad situation?

For .40 cal in bear country, I would alternate hollowpoint with FMJ (for penetration) and plan on emptying the magazine

Illini,
I would shoot the heaviest soft point bullet I cound find for it. Shot a mag or two amd make sure the rounds function flawlessly.
