Would much prefer putting first shot on target for a quick stop, especially with a charging bear. Coming full tilt, even at 22 yards, does not leave room for a second, or at least, an accurate shot

The quick follow up put him down. If I remember right, you shot yours first at 10" off the end of the barrel with a Glock. You're getting old Jimmy!I'll always say it like it was because when it comes to you and our time around each other, well lets just day. You were learning.

Going sideways again..sheesh!
Just to clarify, the reality is if you cannot handle a Magnum handgun, you are going to be getting yourself in a world of hurt with a quickness. I guess I'll have to dig up the video of that flinched shot. If memory serves, the shooter fired 2-3 more rounds before finally connecting and hit the pig too far back and lost some shoulder meat in the process. Very poor marksmanship to say the least. My friend that owned the pigs wasn't too thrilled and I was told to never bring that guy around again.The Glock 20-10mm will be too much for those that don't practice.To the OP, the G-20, 10mm is about the perfect back country handgun. It is my choice anytime I go into the back country when I can open carry.Hard to beat 16 in the gun and 30 more in 2 spare mags in the belt pouch. Also in a pinch, you can, with due diligence, shoot 40S&W in the G-20.
Heck with popcorn, need cheese and crackers... To the op, my handgun of choice is the 329pd. Lightweight, powerfull enough, and quick into action.
