When in bear country, I suggest both guns and bear spray.
Spray first, then shoot.
Unless you think you can accurately hit a fast charging bear with a large enough caliber to put her down, you are better off with the spray. It gives the bear pause, which gives you time to safely shoot it.
Good advice. A lot better than spray and pray. LOL!!!
“Spray first, then shoot.”
Huh? You say that as though you’ll have all the time in the world to spray, switch to the gun, then shoot. Bears don’t play that fair.
