Interesting! What size bear? We talking anything found in Alaska including full grown Grizzly, Polar, Brown & Kodiak?
50 yard ballistics are in the range of 1800 fps at 2400 ft pounds of energy. Definite Blackie flattener, Definite Griz gun at short range.
Not nearly as powerful as most of the popular “bear” guns, but a nice little package to hang on your snow mobile and also popular in a roof clip on the super cub bushplanes.
