A 30.06 is the best pistol against grizzly bears. For the sarcasm challenged, that is to say that no pistol is good enough protection from grizzly bears.
I have to agree that a rifle is the best bet. A .30-06 is the minimum I would consider. If I am in Grizzly country, I'll take my .300 Weatherby mag. As they say, "bring enough gun".

My original pre 1882 JM Marlin Ballard #5 Pacific in 45-70 loaded with a 500 grain cast boolit is more than adequate for griz.
