Ruger GP 100 with Hard Cast bullets!
Six Shots with great accuracy with a couple speed loaders that give you a bit of confidence. Mines a 6” zeroed at
25 yard and 60yards is good for paper plate hits. Practice with .38 +P alot and
Then check yer Zero with costly .357 mag
Hardcast. Mine goes 2 MOA LEFT and Down.
.
That’s all I know

Eagerness to kill bears? You do know that these articles are not about bear hunting, right? The people involved weren't trying to encounter the bears. The bears in these articles were fired upon because the bear forced itself on the people. I think it is a valid assumption to conclude the pistol bearers would have preferred to never have had the encounter. The pistol is the last resort.
Discussion about pistol calibers for bear defense is a legitimate topic that shouldn't be sabotaged by someone who should just move on to the next topic. You just skipping the topic is a lot more practical than you sabotaging the topic and expecting people to skip your responses. (If it is any consolation to you, I look at your comments, shake my head, and ignore them because that is what they warrant. At least, until now, I have skipped comment on them.)

First on the list, BEARS will kill you. This is the best killin bears thread yet. Dan Wesson .41mag is a smooth very powerful shooter.
If I hadnt have been such a wimp in High school, my Dad loves Dan Wesson stuff hence my obsession with it, I would own the .41 mag my dad owned instead of the .357 mag. But it turned into the pistol pack, so I got that going for me, which is nice.

What an utterly vapid and Sophomoric remark, one that I won’t dignify.
