Bear Protection Shotgun

Try Federal truball deep penetrators for lower recoil but good penetration. Actual weight is almost 500 grains and they're made of a hard alloy so don't deform much. Or better yet, Challenger magnum 2 3/4" slugs. Same weight and they are the Best penetrators of any slug I've used including Brennekes. 1,450 fps out of a 15" barrel.

Most all I know here in Alaska use Brenneke Original Slugs the State Troopers / Alaska Pipeline Security DUS and Village Protection Officers for Bear / Moose Defense .
 
If I was going to get a shotgun to carry for bear defense these days it would be this one. I would attach a light and a red dot to it.

My favourite gun by far for camping, hunting, hiking. Haven't been able to source the federal deep pen slugs so I'm running the rio brenneke for now
