Bigger is Better
I love my 357 and 45, but if I where headed into bear counrty I would seriously consider a 454, or 500. Why play around and hope the bear that may attck you is a little bigger than a cub. Better safe than sorry, I'd rather have to much bang than not enough. You can get an Alaska holster that you can strap to your chest, I think the extra weight is worth the piece of mind.
