I carried my 1911 with me a couple years ago while hunting in the shotgun zone. If the opportunity had presented itself, I would have tried to take a deer with it, just to say I did it.

I'm carrying one of these up north while setting our bait piles, should the bear somehow end up close enough to my stand on Monday...

.25 auto is the way to go. 200 hard range easy... :rotf:


Sorry could not help myself. Leave the .45 home. Between the 2 choices you have given the .357 is the better option.

Jared Allen took a cow elk with a spear. Was over bait and from a tree stand that was videoed for some outdoors show.
