A bear can cover about 25ft per second at a modest run. So you will get one decent shot off, you wont be shooting until it breaks that 20-25ft threshold. If you can not shoot a 44mag, nothing wrong with 250gr 45colt running 1000fps. Not much will stop that, but 1st rd hit will be the same time regardless of caliber.
