Too many bear tales out there already too sensational etc. It's all over the web. I don't know if you saw it but we recreated the situation on the range with Buffalo Bore 147 grain hard cast a coke can size target (the size of the group Phil got on the moving bear) and the same gun. Everyone present could easily make the shots on a non carnivorous steel target that wasn't standing on top of his 2 clients... Here is Phil knocking over a steel pig at Whittington Center
This shows the angle from were we were shooting the 15 yard target representing the bear's kill zone.
