12 gauge slugs will do next to nothing to bear’s skull.

No personal experience but I find that very hard to believe.

The old Foster type 12 gauge slug at 10 yards will punch a very nice hole through an engine block. Would do the same to a bear.

It’ll penetrate 3/8 steel plate, but won’t penetrate a bear skull?

Never shot a bear have you I have you.

I have killed them with pistols rifles and shotguns.

Slugs will pass through a bears skull with ease.
