That stuff is actually pretty soft. Used some to make drip rail brackets for my boat, sawzall zipped right through it. I use the same saw/blade to cut up antlers and femur for chew toys for the dog, the comparison wasn’t close. Uhmw is the same way, resists abrasion and blunt impacts incredibly well, soft material to cut through though.
Statistically speaking aggressive black bear encounters are far more common lol
I think people get way too invested in the mythical best bear load when good bear spray is probably enough on its own. Screw a handgun though if it was down to having to shoot. I'll take an underfolder AK.

All you need is a single shot .22, giant balls and some wisdom;
If you want to shot at teddy with .22, you better cut your balls off first (you'll not need them afterwards)
Having attended highschool in Anchorage, I've had brown bear encounters! I prefer them from a distance, as a spectator sport. If I were hunting; 458 Win-mag or 300 Weatherby...
