I don't know anything about what is available. Is there a brand made specifically for bear? How long does it keep? Can you depend on it to spray like it is supposed to ? Range?
Any advice would be appreciated.

If we're talkin grizzly (or a black bear with cubs) and he/she's behaving in a threatening manner, I just can't imagine relying on a can of spray to hit right between the eyes. We're talkin seconds here. I personally wouldn't put too much faith in it.
That may seem really basic, but it did click with me in a way it hadn't before. I guess sometimes it helps to take a step back and look at the situation from a different perspective.Ya but you need to think of the bear as a bear, not a person.
It's not so easy to just shoot and stop a bear. If anything it can anger them more. Whereas they don't understand why they suddenly can't breathe, when sprayed, and it discourages them, rather than enrages.
I dunno. I think if I was being charged by a bear, it would take a heck of a lot of willpower and faith to reach for a can of spray instead of a Ruger SBH in .44 mag.
