I remember reading a story in Outdoor life years ago. I think there were four guys, all with rifles. A bear charged them. Everyone unloaded. I think about 10-12 rounds were fired. The bear was hit twice. Luckily one of the shots killed it and it died at their feet. I think many people are delusional when it comes to how they will react to a giant bear running at them. I used to shoot USPSA for a few years and I can't tell you how many times I completely missed a target that was under 5 yards and the only stressor was a timer. It didn't even seem possible. If you don't train regularly drawing from your holster and trying to get shots on target as fast as possible, you will NEVER do it when it matters. Also, train with all of your gear. Even just dry firing.
