@tgomezIm just curious:Why stack FMJs in your 45?I'd think some quality hollow points or hard cast lead would always be more destructive. Also, 13+1 in your 45 isn't enough for wolves or cougar defense?What do you carry for that?
Yowza! There is a first person horror story!I bet you go over that in your mind occasionally? So many things could have gone wrong with it ending in a different outcome. Details! Cub’s? Berries? What do you think provoked the attack? Or was there anything?

Also, 13+1 in your 45 isn't enough for wolves or cougar defense?What do you carry for that?* I alternate rounds so I have a round for prenetration followed by one for expansion throughout the entirety of the 13 round magazine.* I carry a sidearm more for wolves and cougar rather than black bear is what that means. Not that I carry even more ammunition.

Can't really take much time off work so I have not really had much luck with deer season and limited time I get can out there during the season. Looking forward to being able to go for a little longer during the season and possibly eating a bear.

Well Ima gonna chime in here. We do have a lot of bear, cats and now wolves were I live. In fact we had to take a bear right in town this year, was getting to close to people. Anyway, when Im in the woods, and even when Im in my truck, its my Glock 40 10mm, 200grn Hornady leaving the barrel at 1300fps. Hot rounds that are hand loaded. 15 in the gun and 15 on the web. I dont really worry about bear to much or really even cats. But wolves thrill kill and so do 2 legged critters. I've never had to draw my weapon, but it makes me feel good to have it on m,y chest, although sometimes I do have my trusty old 30-30 along for the ride.
