Bear bullet?

Go with the cast. Better yet, leave the pistol at home and use your rifle. It will work a little better.

Mr 16..Buckhunter has the better idea. Use a heavy cast hard 250 gr bullet in the 44.. Save the last one for your self..so ya won't have to endure the pain of the gnawing. He really did have the best idea about going to bed with the rifle. We all have handguns in camp but 3 of us carry an 8 shot pump shotgun...loaded with slugs. We have quite a few grizz in the areas we hunt. In The area 61 I hunt ..the ranch manager just had a cow killed by a grizz. Quite a few wolves there too. Killed 3 of his calves so far. We even had a grizz in camp..but with the noise we made he left us alone(that was in area 58). There are 6 of us that hunt together...sometimes 7 with the lady that hunts with us. She can't always get off as she is a school teacher. That woman carries one of those 45 410 Judge revolvers...all the time. Don't know if she can shoot it but it looks scary. Not 'nuff for a serious bear though.
