[QUOTE="bankbb1, post: 470047, member: 4961"] First, I have been going into the wilderness for the better part of 40 years now and I have never had any problem with a grizzly or any other bear, even though I have been in very close proximity to them. As matter of fact the only animal I have ever had a problem with in the wilderness is man. Having said that, I would have to hold with a few of the others. What will you carry and what will you shoot? I only mean that a 454 Casul does little good against a pesky rabbit, much less a grizzly if you don't practice with it; it has the recoil of a howitzer and costs a fortune everytime you pull the trigger. On the other hand a .300 Weatherby magnum is of little use if its still in the house. Be willing to make a few decissions about what you are willing to be good with first. My opinion the gun.......if you want it for self defense, 12 ga. If your going hunting, get a big freakin' rifle. [/QUOTE]
