when rifle hunting onlly rifle as our gvt did not trust us to have anything else ...

we call bear spray, bear seasoning here ...

Rifle and bear spray. I don’t see a reason to carry another 2-3lbs for a pistol and holster. But I also switch to pistol and bear spray when hauling meat.

I ain't screwing around.

 

[Oncorhynchus]

Rifle and Glock 20 with Underwood 200gr hardcast.

Rifle while hunting, handgun at camp for if I get something down and have a packout.

If backpacking in, ill have both.

Anyone switched to 9 Mike Mike with hot hard casts? Probably about time to teach my oldest daughter to shoot a pistol. Doubt she can handle a 10 or 45 Super. But I've got a G34 and a XMacro. That X macro in a chest rig would be slick.
Hunting an area right now where that has a couple griz. Not exactly on the Montana front. Honestly I didn't even think there were black bears in there until this past weekend. Ha the griz that supposedly lives in there was down in the nearby town in someone's yard. So he's on vacation .

Figure a bunch of well placed hot 9's are better than a bad placed 10's.

And I'm not sold on mace. Especially when the wind is blowing 25 mph.

My pistol is a 9mm. Using regular self defense ammo. Dont remember the brand. Thought of doing hard cast. But with the correct SD ammo, you should have plenty of penetration and expansion to neutralize the threat.

A slower partner.

I go for the spray, with or without my rifle. However I have been entertaining bringing my pistol for the tent at night.

I switched to a 9mm years ago because I’m more accurate with it. Just use a good barrier blind bullet like Critical Duty, Gold Dot, HST or some of the copper loads from G9, or Lehigh.
