It would seem,at least in the cases reported as of late, firearms are having a more effective effect on the attacks than pepper spray..each to their own, but wind in the wrong direction wont turn the bullet back into my face like spray.. I'll take the gun..
Pepper/Oc/Mace spray's are what I call subjective. They take time to work, they really need to be heavy dosed so the bear needs to be in real close. Wind has a big influences on effectiveness and bears, like people, will be affected to differing degrees. On people these sprays work all the way from being very effective to having bugger all effect. Be buggered if I want to risk my life on the attacking bear being one that will be greatly effected by the spray. Like Ripp, I'll take the gun.
