have you ever heard of a 22 killing a grizzly?

Question

ok i just ask to make conversation but yes you can kill a grizz with a 22.outdoorslife bear book quote,I once asked an old eskimo bear hunter what rifle he generally used .it was an ancient 22 ,a single-shot of falling blockdesign. he produced several skullswith a .22 hole drilled neatly through them several years ago a manmalogist had pad him $5 for one and he'd been saving skulls ever since.as near as i could tell, he'd killed 13 bears with this tiny rifle... man that oldboy had brass balls

Answer 1

If you get the right angle on it, it's possible, but i would not try and get that close to a bear

Answer 2

Ha! Ha! Ha! HA!!!! That was a good one! Other than a seriously ticked off, annoyed bear, a .22 wouldn't kill him. Have you ever seen the actual size of a Grizzly? They are huge! And even bigger if you happen to run into one on the trail and live to tell about it. Do yourself a favor and adopt these Bear Rules on How to Stay Breathing in One Piece:

Bear Rule #1: Avoid all Grizzlies
Bear Rule #2: Don't ever tangle in any way with a Grizzly. (Especially don't annoy them with a .22 cal pea shooter!)
Bear Rule #3: You don't have to run faster than a Grizzly, only faster than your ex-friends who are with you.

Enjoy your time in Grizzly Country!

Answer 3

A few years ago an autopsy was done on a grizzly, they found something like 45 different size bullets in it that had been shot at it over several years time. A couple years ago I went to see a speaker talking about grizzlies. He told of the time when he was talking to a couple game wardens about the right size gun to use. He told them that he carried a 357 magnum with him. They said it would work. When he saw a grizzly coming to attack him to simply point the gun to his own temple, then pull the trigger.

Answer 4

It definitely is possible, but the shot placement has to right on in the brain.

Answer 5

I never knew anyone, who "lived" to tell about it. ~%})~
