I can’t imagine stopping that much mass on full tilt boogie with any special magic mist.

I heard the panic and dissapointment.
That guy had steel nerve.

Definitely clean underwear.

How about a ruger alaskan 454 wheelgun to go with that rifle?

[Concho]

The .45-70 IS the .45 Govt, or .45-70 Govt. It is an 1873 cartridge that consists of a 500 grain flat based soft lead slug over 70 grains of compressed black powder. It launches the 500 grain slug at about 1700 fps, and was designed for, and will shoot through a horse at 600 yards from an original gun. Modern rifles with smokeless powder have slightly higher velocities but with lighter copper jacketed bullets still approximate the same energies as the original Black Powder loads.

If you do your homework you will find that there have been more Grizzlys killed with a .30-06, than with all other calibers combined.

I’ll take the rifle, thanks.

That’the hardest I’ve laughed in days :)

How about a bullet filled with pepper spray?

Or a gun that squirts pepper spray and shoots a bullet at the same time?

I know you are funnin but there is a serious problem developing in Montana and Alaska. “Griz” have started running to the sound of gunfire believing that a free meal is waiting.

[mad_as_he$$]

Often not with big bears. They do so much damage trying to move you around you may as well be dead.

[mad_as_he$$]

Now that is a 9.9 on the pucker scale!!!

[G Larry]

Love that joke.
How do you tell if it’s Grizzly poop?
If it’s got a spray bottle and bells in it!

The success in either spray or gun is determined by your application speed vs. the bears closing speed.
The gun is effective for a longer moment.

[mad_as_he$$]

More of aobut everything killed with 30-06.

“How about a bullet filled with pepper spray.”

You should stop by my place and check the trash can. I was saving mine as a gift for a certain someone who turned out to be a rat not a bear. So, I don’t need it anymore.
