Until you start shooting really hot "Anti-Bear" loads...    I gotta smile at people so concerned about extra ounces...must be nice not to have stored calories to spare..

I have a Taurus tracker titanium in 45 lc and a 6 inch tube. Killed a few grouse with it

Did the grouse vaporize?

I added the x frame grips.....its a normal feeling gun with a bit more muzzle flip with them....but you also have 100 yard accuracy should you choose to hunt with it.

I shoot the crap out of mine, its actually at smother right now getting an overhaul. I have a rather large pool of guns to choose from and I always take that one with me. I guess the good part of having 16 rounds off is you are already deaf and won't hear your bones getting crushed. If 1500 grains didn't do it....I will eat the last one.

1500 grains?   You can get 180gr for the 10mm 2880 grains 



The 629Classic will always be my favorite and first choice but I'd still like a 10mm.  My only real 4 legged problems in Washington were a lot smaller than bears.

This is what i will be carrying when in the woods this year. I picked some of the buffalo bore ammo for it 158 gr. J.H.C. (1,475fps/M.E. 763 ft. lbs.)

When I'm not packin one of my 44mags, (7 1/2" RSBH Bisley or 5" SS RRH -300gn Sierra SP pushed by 21gns of win296), a SS Kimber in 45acp (Home/Hard lead cast 265gn TC pushed by a whopping amount of Win231),  I'm packing a SS 2" Ruger SP101 in 357mag with Black Tallons.

I like my 329 enough that its often my primary weapon.

I try and aim for the neck or head area... but they do get a bit prechewed if I hit the breast. 

[high country]

Just hit them where the head bolts on.

G20 is what I settled on.  Over the counter 10mm ammo can be pathetic, not any better than 40 S&W.  I handload to where it is supposed to be, 180gr XTPs at 1300-1350 fps.
