My cousin almost squeezed off a round, but he had drawn his gun a second before I had and is a much more experienced hunter. Taking a running shot at a bear with a handgun is beyond my skill and comfort level. I cannot believe how fast those big animals can run. The wheel gun is a S&W 460V. Thank you. I wanted to take a camera, but wanted to save weight. So the phone camera had to do. JYD#116
