I don’t even think a pistol would stop a charging grizzly. Maybe a shotgun.

A 12 gauge auto or pump with rifled slugs or 00 buck is the best remedy for a charging grizzly, unless you have a 45-70 cal rifle ready.With the auto 12 you can triple tap and that stops them dead. Usually it turns them to the side and then you can get to the tender parts with follow up shots.

I am told Alaska wildlife employees carry 12 ga shotguns and load 600 gr 1500 fps Brenneke Black Magic slugs for handling problem brown and polar bears...

Large well placed pistol shots will stop a charging grizzly
You can youtube it
I’m no expert
Follks use from .357 to .500 linebaugh
I’d prefer .44 mag or .454 Casull myself
Or just put up with the weight of a .375 or big bore shotgun in slug
Or both
