Here's a very interesting interview with Phil Shoemaker about brown bear hunting in Alaska. Among other things, Phil describes his now-famous incident from 2016 where he killed a bear with a 9mm handgun in detail. Listen to the podcast here: https://thebiggamehuntingblog.com/podcast/master-alaska-guide-phil-shoemaker/Or watch the interview on YouTube here:

I roll hard cast in my p365 now, although I really like my 320 in 357 sig
Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, b/c they know not victory nor defeat"- #26 TR

I roll hard cast in my p365 now, although I really like my 320 in 357 sig I lost all trust in 357sig ammo. Before I switched to a Glock 9mm, I was having numerous fail to feed issues due to poor quality in manufacturing tolerances

Good guest but I had to turn it off.
The 5th time he said “fair enough” when it wasn’t warranted, I couldn’t take it anymore
