When I was riding seriously and training for xc races, I carried a 26 in my hydration pack. I was able to get it out fast enough to draw on two pit bulls that a guy released on me way out in Tweakerville in S Washington. After he saw the gun, he called his dogs.

Wow, my Sunday was different! How do you feel today?Originally Posted by Clusterfrack
I’m writing this post from Missoula. I’m here for the USPSA Area 1 Championship. Unfortunately I pulled/tore a calf muscle on the first day and couldn’t continue the match. I’m staying in a cabin outside town and was hobbling on a hike in the woods when I met a big momma and two cubs.
I drew my P07, yelled, and took cover behind some closely spaced trees. Even with 16 rounds of 147HST, I felt pretty undergunned. She postured but when her cubs left she did too.
Is the 115 +p+ the current recommendation for Underwood 9mm?

Yeah, that was exciting, but I’d rather have been shooting USPSA.
I’m feeling a ton better. Muscle is not torn, I think. I should be able to shoot USPSA Dundee this Sat.
Congrats on your finish yesterday!

How did she carry instead?
Followup to my bear story. My buddy and I got a ride into town from one of the owner/caretakers of our cabin. She and her sister live in a trailer on site, and seemed to be in their 60's. They moved to Missoula from Idaho a couple of years ago, and don't seem to have much experience. Evidently there are at least 3 families of bears living around there, plus a big aggressive male. The two women are afraid to do any hiking around their property because the bears basically own the area, and visitors keep feeding them.
Interesting.

Maybe they'd put you up for free to come back in bear season and cull the big male?

What an excellent idea! I'd have to find someone with hunting experience to go with me.

Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
Montana 2018 Black Bear Season Dates: From April 15 through May 31–June 15 (Various). Not too late assuming there are still tags available. The out of state licence is kinda spendy though
Not too late for revenge?
I've got too much going on right now to make that happen. But that place definitely needs some hunting done. Too many bears.
