The 12 will work with a pheasant load, if the bear is close enough. The course I took suggested spray is effective only if used accurately within 12 feet. A bear at 30mph covers that quite quickly. A blast of bird-shot to the face from a choked gun at that same range, should pen. his frontal skull. Yes - slugs are much better - buckshot will work at spray ranges, but not much beyond that 12 to 15 feet. It, like bird shot, has to hit as a solid slug would. Best to pack slugs. Here, there is no such thing as a 28 bore slug load, that I am aware of. I would prefer something over an ounce. |
