This article gives five cases of people being charged at, and successfully defending themselves with guns, and then goes on to advise that people carry bear spray!!

That’s like an article describing cases where women smoked attempted rapists, and then went on to advise that women should always carry their rape whistles.

Did they tell you that the .25 ACP wasn’t for the bear?

Carry bear spray close at hand and know how to use it. Make noise to alert bears of your presence and travel and hunt in groups when possible.

Be extra cautious around creeks, and in areas with limited visibility. Most attacks happen in surprise, close encounters.

Watch for signs of bears such as scat, diggings, torn-up logs and turned over rocks, and partly consumed animal carcasses, and be extra aware or avoid these areas.

At least a 25 doesn’t kick like a Casull

I like Buffalo Bore Ammo. They also give real ballistic data out of various firearms.

For that gun there is Buffalo Bore Dangerous Game. Reputed to go in the front end of a water buffalo and exit aft.

“Man survives Kodak bear attack with just a .22 pistol. “

The bear was just there to take pictures. 😁
