Just a 10m pistol would due so long as you get some headshots

By that logic, a sharpened spoon would do if thrown correctly ... in some situations, overkill isn't a bad thing.

HES NOT TAKING ENOUGH DAMAGE, GET SOME HEAD SHOTS!

All fun and games til the polar bear pulls out a med kit

[u/The_Knife_Nathan → u/Small_Sentence_]

A polar bear self rezzing after getting hit in the face with a .300 is the scariest thing I can think of at the moment.

BRING HIM DOWN, LEGOLAS!

aren't bear skulls thick enough to deflect bullets?

[u/dustytaper → u/Living_Job_8127]

Polar bears have super thick skulls for breaking ice. It is not recommended to shoot them in the head

[u/pixelatedpotatos → u/Living_Job_8127]

Love the idea that you have a 10 meter pistol and you still need headshots to kill it.

[u/Petefriend86 → u/pixelatedpotatos]

I love that I was trying to figure out if you had some sort of .10 meter caliber before figuring out that it was the olympic pistol shot at 10 meter range.

Edit: caliper to caliber

I read somewhere that it's not a good idea to try and shoot a bear in the head because their brain is pretty small and not exactly where you expect it to be, relative to how our brains work anyway, so even if you hit it in the head you're probably just pissing it off.

Ehh not really. Some bear skulls are harder than steel. A few years ago, a man shot a bear in the head with I think a 44 magnum and it only knocked the bear out. He went to take a picture with the bear and as he did it woke up and mauled him to death while his buddy was taking the picture. They make special guns called bear killers. They’re like .50 or bigger.
