Sounds good, except you spelled Ruger wrong, it's R-U-G-E-R, not R-O-S-S-I.
Do you know what animal is the greatest threat when hiking/camping/etc.?
Humans. You are much more likely to run into a dangerous person than have a bad encounter with a bear. I think a person that arms himself with a something that they would use as a winter carry gun is doing well. It may be less than ideal for stopping a bear attack, but is better suited for the more likely threat. If you KNOW that you are going to run into bears (fishing in AK comes to mind) you may need to rethink.
You running Ranger +P+ stuff in a BHP? How is that working? Back when I got all the Ranger 127 gain ammo I wanted for $8.25 a box, I gave some to a couple of friends with Hipowers. One brought back a a partial box and the other used it exclusively in his Glock after trying it in his HP. Both were concerned about the extra wear and tear.
