Was walking a cutline a few years ago and i hear this noise to my right and here its a black bear charging full steam for me, i brought my 30.06 up and i was about to squeeze but he stopped about 10yds from me then turned ran 10yds, starred at me some more then went into the bush's. I think what stopped him was the barbwire fence between us but he was about one more step away from gettin a 180grain Partition between the shoulder blades.
