I normally carry a Ruger BH in either 45 Colt or 41 magnum, has worked great for the last 42 years. If I wanted to up my capacity, it would be a 1911 doublestack platform in 38 Super with +P such as CorBon although the first 2 rds would be TC FMJs. Read what Cooper the Guru of the 1911 thought about that combo as a bear and lion ( and I mean African) stopper for backup. Brain pan penetration for sure stopping power. I stuck a Colt 38 Super barrel on My Rock Island 22 TCM and it gives me 18 rds+1 of plenty of power in a flat shooting hicap platform that would be more than adequate. I don't run the PWN anymore, but we have the same problem with 2 legged varmints along the SW border. A spare clip and my rifle would leave me feeling comfortable. I just prefer to carry the Rugers.
