I’ve just skimmed through but this has the makings of a good movie.

I guess he didn’t get to the bear carcass in time to save the pelt. That would have been cool.

a Glock 20 is my EDC weapon. I put a KKM barrel in it and trijicon 3 dot tritium night sights on top. The ammo is 180 grain Hornady XTPs and pretty hot. I don’t live in bear country but there’s no shortage of two legged threats walking around and storoes like these leave me with no doubt that the 10mm automatic is adequate to stop those threats should it ever be necessary and I pray that it isn’t. I have a Glock 29 which is the Glock 20s little brother and it will take the Glock 20’s 15 round magazines but I prefer the bigger pistol.

Great report, Dean. I’m glad he told his story to you.

Fascinating story. I think buffalo bore cartridges are a good idea going forward.

I'd have preferred a Cold Delta Elite in 10 mm, but I'm glad his Glock did the job.
