I don’t go hiking alot, usually when im in the woods im hunting and have a long gun of some sort so then i just carry my g23 with 180gr gold dots. If its deer season ill carry a 629 or m&p 10mm instead of the Glock 23. On the rare occasion a bear has been seen around our place ill carry one of the bigger pistols. We have an occasional bear sighting but the biggest threats around here are coyotes,wild dogs, or two legged threats. I save the 9mm’s for urban carry
