Hiker gets pictures of bear in woods, gets killed..

I enjoy hiking and as I live in northeastern ohio the chances of running into a bear are slim.

Interestingly I recently read a story of a guy who killed a brown bear with a single shot in the lung from a .45

Still a lot higher than the chances of running into one at the bar at the winking lizard....

Oh no. They're much lower. But I guess that's a different type of bear.Still a lot higher than the chances of running into one at the bar at the winking lizard....

I carry a Glock 20 with me when I am hiking. 220gr of hardcast bullet will do a number on WV sized bears. Anything bigger and I would get into the large bore revolvers or a long gun.

I've never shot a 10mm. Everyone who has raves about it. Excellent "bear gun" from what I've read/ heard.

And apparently a significantly different kind of "gun."

All I have is my 9mm hollow points. I would hope the big noise would scare the bear away.
But, there have been bear sightings in every country in Ohio, you know. When we first bought our
farm, we went hiking all around the perimeter, takes about an hour... and in late spring, we found bear
tracks in a patch of snow. Bear tracks - the claws don't retract like a mtn lion. Which, although rare, it
happened to me back in the early sixties in S. Ohio... mountain lion. I've seen a young bear myself, just
up the road - it crossed the street in front of me at night. The game warden said there are more and more.
Nobody hunts them in our area, or maybe anywhere in Ohio, like they do in PA.

It was just an FYI to a DIP.

See, this is why I want a CCW and an M1 Garand.
That will likely be uncomfortable.See, this is why I want a CCW and an M1 Garand.
