I made my shot of a lifetime when I took down a 250+ pound wild bore at 40 yards or so with one shot. As best I can recall, I used 230 or 260 grain jacketed hollow points on that hunt.
With a grizzly, mad or not, that would be a time of extreme stress for lil ol' me (needless to say :eek: ). I'd be more concerned with having a pistol that I was extremely accurate and proficient with, more so than being concerned with the knockdown punch or penetration characteristics of the round. I've never had or shot a 10mm Glock 20 but I believe it's on the same basic frame as the .45 Glock 21 - which I have shot and is similar enough to the .40 Glock 22 that I had... I'd be more than comfortable with it.
So with all that said, even though my .45 Win Mag has never had a FUBAR moment, I'd probably go with the Glock 20. Plus it sports a 15 round mag. Snap a +2 on it and you have 17 rounds! My AMT is only 6+1. I don't see that I'd need more than 4 rounds on Yogi inside 20 yards with the .45 mag, but why take a chance?
