Interesting video.
Without a doubt the choice to shoot at the bedded bear was a mistake.
I didn't watch far enough to know if there is an explanation for the rifle(shooter?) malfunction.
The rifle is a M700 Remington, but I also didn't catch caliber info.
Not a fan of the .454Casull either but that's not important.
So putting all the above aside, this video is exactly why the ability to carry a big bore handgun should be there for all hunters.

It's time to go hunting and quit all this ballistic masturbation."
