Not to argumentative and a "Devil's Advocate". But I was quite surprised by my Rem 870 smooth bore with rifled slugs. With just the bead at 50yds, it was throwing Rem 2 3/4 sluggers in a 2-3 in pattern. But adrenaline charged would definately be a factor.
But I'd think with over 450gr of lead hitting a bear in a typical less than 8 inch pattern at 10 yds, would be devastating. If not stop him cold after the second.
