These were not the rounds that had downed the animal either, they were instances where the bear had been shot with a 12 guage slug and lived on for quite some time.

Somebody tell me again how a frangible round or a shotshell is the way to go...
think they were implying it would more scare the bear off than do harm to it. guess it depends on how pissed the bear is, but I wouldn't wanna take my chances.....
