Howdy all! The "small caliber" link got me thinking. What are your favotite calibers and loads for cougar/bear defense?
As per my comment in the other link, I carry a .45 ACP with 165gr. Hydra-Shoks, good penetration, good blood channel, around 1100FPS, and plenty of punch. I used to carry a .41 Mag Blackhawk with plain jacketed ammo. What do you carry and why?
