Handgun vs. Animals
I do a lot of hiking and I'm looking for something with a little more power that my S&W 3913 against 4 legged critters namely wolves, coyotes, black bears, whatever. Anyone have any recommendations?

Where I'm at I have to think about snakes, foxes, coyote and Dogs for the most part. Where I go camping and backpacking I have to worry about Bears and California magazine restrictions.
Currently my local Fred Meyers has a Ruger .44 magnum for $850. I'm lucky I have other bills to pay first.

You can get a Ruger GP-100 in .357 for probably $300-400.

A 10mm might be nice.

Yeah I was leaning towards the glock 20/29 10mm or some .44 mag revolver I've read that .357 magnum is ineffective towards bears.
