Bea, you watched too much Tarzan like me growing up
OP - if ME, in heavy Grizz territory, I'd want a Partition or Barnes in chamber, of something very proven over time.
Cup cores can work, I'd prefer a bonded if so. A diff exists in HUNTING bear vs. concerns about an up close encounter. A 44-475 cal handgun with heavy casts will drive deaper than a BergerBomb but I'd prefer a rifle if I had time to get off a decent shot, vs. a handgun.
