[QUOTE="JiminAZ, post: 2484011, member: 120096"] Elaborating on the comments of the Alaska F&G guy - he gave a bear avoidance/protection presentation that I attended. His job taking out problem bears had involved him shooting dozens of bears. He used a 375 H&H and said even that had its limitations. I do know a guy that killed one in Montana a few years ago with a 40S&W pistol. He was archery hunting alone. Know another guy that killed one with his Buck Knife. Not recommended. The biggest problem with a long gun is keeping it on your person. Lots of stories out there about the gun leaning up against a nearby tree when Mr griz shows up. Our OP essentially has a security detail in his caller carrying protection so not an issue for him. [/QUOTE]
