The .454 Casull snubnose is actually bear anesthesia. After missing the bear, you’ll be blind and deaf and won’t have to hear or see brother bear eating you.

after buying a Ruger 77/44 bolt action rifle in .44 Mag, my screaming shoulder made me wonder in amazement how anyone could shoot that round in a handgun.

You need to shoot something 30-06 or bigger and you will start to learn what recoil is.

Bear medicine is a 338 Win mag.

Just depends how much barrel you want to haul around to compensate for small hand size.

I fired a lever-action rifle in .44 Magnum once and maybe it was the shape of the butt end but it was painful and it had a terrible trigger pull as well. Clint Eastwood shooting the .44 one-handed with any degree of accuracy strikes me as unlikely.

Hey.
But for real, hand size has nothing to do with accurate shooting under pressure if you know what you’re doing. A charging brown bear requires a heart or CNS shot to be stopped when using a handgun round out of a short barrel. Not gonna happen 99% of the time. You’re better off carrying bear spray if you’re not carrying a rifle or a shotgun with slugs when in bear country. 454 Casull is the ultimate “compensating” round.

I had a Mosin Nagant with a short barrel once. It felt like shooting a 12 gauge shotgun.

That’s actually my cousin’s revolver and “bear repellant” is his term. He stumbled across the gun at an estate sale and snapped it up. He and this revolver live in Virginia and when I visit his property, his neighbor brings over an M-60 and a Tommy gun and other wonders and we make quite a lot of noise. My favorite WWII gun to fire is the M1 Garand. What a devastating battle rifle that would have been. Imagine the noise of 100 or more of those 30-06s blazing away at once. Or being on the receiving end...
Fellow with the 60 also has a deuce-n-a-half.

Probably on the far side of the altamont pass.

I have a 12 gauge 870 Express Magnum with a 20" slug barrel. I am well aware what recoil is, thank you very much.

I was going to post that when I lived there I found the regulations and limitations extremely difficult to deal with. I’m sure I have tripped over some CA gun laws just transporting them around within the state, it felt like that much of a minefield.
I suspect the forests in the far northern third of the state are easier than the southern two thirds of the state.

The 60 is raucous. The Thompson is surprisingly big and heavy. In fact, the Tommy was a bit of a letdown, as was the M-1 carbine. For me, the 60 and the Garand -- and the Ruger mountain gun — are the ones I like to shoot.
