Lucky to have a client with his wits about him.

My buddy Igor and client were charged by a grizzly that was uphill of them. Igor got 3 shots into the bear and his old Mauser had spit out the last round when he ejected the 3rd. empty.
That 3rd. shot turned the bear and rolled him the he got to growling and biting off all the little trees and scrub within reach. He'd been spined by the 3rd. shot, but not dead.
Igor tried to get the client's rifle from him, as the client stood looking at the growling bear and ejected all the rounds out of his 7 Rem. Mag. Igor finally got the rifle from him, picked up one of the ejected rounds, chambered it and approached the bear, which had expired in the mean time.
Upon questioning the client, the client said he thought he was shooting the bear.
That was the last time he packed the old "light" 8mm mauser. His load was a good one, though, 225gr. SPEER RN @2,400fps.
It was also the last time he carried only 1 magazine of ammo.
