Best Bear-Stopping Guns

from Backcountry Hunting Podcast · host Joseph von Benedikt

Folks, I think we often miss the mark when we talk about guns for defense against trouble bears. It's crucial to keep in mind that although a handgun or a deer rifle is far better than nothing and is sometimes the only option, they're still a distant second-best to powerful big-bore guns.   This 5-minute episode details three top choices for actually STOPPING a charging bear. Not just killing it, but preventing it from killing you.   We're filming these brief bonus episodes, so if you'd like to put eyes on the rifles showcased in this episode, please join us on www.patreon.com/backcountry .   ENJOY!
