In my personal opinion from growing up around guys that have hunted in bear country their whole lives and can attest to what is most important in an unfortunate circumstance of an attack, the most important thing to remember in such a situation is getting as many shots on target in the quickest amount of time. Yes the larger 44mags will certainly have more immediate stopping power however having 10 additional rounds at my resource gives me significantly more confidence in what i carry. More shots on target, and quick draw capability equals a better yet not certain chances for survival in an attack.
Holster of choice is a Kenai chest holster: https://gunfightersinc.com/kenai-chest-holster/
I've found training with a bear gun to give me more confidence in hitting my target than more billets but YMMV.
