I think I will side with the semi auto on this one.

Another guy in New Mexico failed to stop a black bearquickly enough with his 10mm, even with multiple hits. The bear was gnawing onhim when he tried a head shot. The gun jammed. He cleared the jam while thebear continued to dine on his leg and finally killed the bruin. Rescuers had tocut the bear’s jaws off his leg.

What he does not tell you is the guy was using hollowpoint ammo, Hornady Critical Duty IIRC. He also fails to mention that the guyshot 6 rounds before the malfunction, how many rounds does a revolver carry?This may have turned out differently had the guy used some form of non-expandingammo. But lets say the only way to stop the bear was a shot to the head. Inthat case a revolver would not had been any better and instead of clearing a malfunctionhe would have been trying a reload on a single action revolver.

Contrast that with my friend, Alaska resident and guideLucas Clark. A large brown bear attacked him. He shot it with his .500 S&W,and the bear fell down and politely died.

Shot placement?
