Backpacking is a pretty loose subject. Depending on your hike, duration etc... the situation would dictate your choices.

I'm pretty sure there is a ALDHA west, that would have a forum on what they usually carry. (tree huggers aside).....

If your going for a few days, like I usually do, it's a 380 with some hollow tips.

I usually worry more about the strange people I meet.....

My experience is that people are bigger threat than animals. (nuts..goof'balls, etc...)

If it's a day hike.. I'll take the XD40 Sub.... .40cal.. deadly accurate...

If it's longer than a week...I'll take the NAA Guardian 380. ..

I love stainless...............
