COMPARISON CHART OF BEAR PEPPER SPRAY Net Weight, % Capsaicin and other Capsaicinoids, Spray Distance and Spray Time as provided above, are taken directly from each product’s EPA approved label *IGBC:  The Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee consists of representatives from the U.S. Forest Service, the National Park Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Geological Survey and representatives of the state wildlife agencies of Idaho, Montana, Washington and Wyoming. In the interest of international coordination and cooperation, the Canadian Wildlife Service is also represented. Click here for Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee Position Paper Independent testing laboratory verifies spray time. .  The EPA requires the concentration of Active Ingredient (capsaicin and related capsaicinoids) range between 1% and 2%.  The minimum size can the EPA requires is 7.9 ounces or 225 grams.  The EPA requires each registrant to provide spray distance and time of continuous spray for their product and include the information on the label, although the EPA has no established limits.   The above chart reflects only bear pepper sprays that meet the minimum distance recommendation as suggested by bear biologists and wildlife specialists.  COUNTER ASSAULT Meets or exceeds all Biologists Recommendations! Why is a Minimum of 25 Feet Important? Bears can charge at speeds up to 30+ mph.  They need sufficient time to change from a contact charge to a bluff charge. If a bear is going to charge more than once, it creates a barrier zone for the bear to have to reenter. CROSS Wind may reduce the distance.  If a can is capable of spraying 25 feet, it may be reduced to 15 or 18 feet, but a can that only sprays 18 feet may be reduced to 8 or 9 feet of coverage. There are many types of ways that bears confront people.  The three most common encounter scenarios where the suggested 25 foot spray range will be most beneficial are: A sudden close encounter and defensive charge from 15-25 feet. A full defensive charge from more than 50 feet away. A gradual continuous approach (curious, predatory or defensive to determine what and who you are). Why is a Minimum Spray Time of 6 Seconds Important? If there is more than one bear, such as mother bear with mature cubs, each one may be charging from different directions. More than one bear at a fresh kill site. Wind, rain and cold weather. More than one charge from a bear. More than one encounter. Reserve for hiking out.

Do not spray objects, tents or humans; such use has no deterrent effects on bears. Our cans are designed to maintain minimum loss of pressure, resulting in negligible difference between the first and last shots.

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS: Special procedures must be followed to arm the container, apply the product and restore the safety clip to disarm the container. Before taking this product into bear country, read the directions below and familiarize yourself with these procedures. If you test-fire this container, make sure the wind is at your back and depress actuator tab for no more than half a second. Do not test-fire in area inhabited by bears. If test-fired, clean nozzle and can with soap and water to remove residue from can. If you have not used this product before, you should obtain a Counter Assault training can and practice with it until you can perform these activities quickly and accurately. TO ARM AND APPLY Designed for one-hand operation. Place forefinger through the hole in the handle with your thumb on the safety clip curl. With thumb, pull safety clip straight back and off (fig 1). Depress actuator tab for burst of spray (fig 2). Aim slightly downward in front of the bear at the eyes and face. Depress actuator tab for 1-2 seconds in order to create a barrier of spray between you and the bear. Stop to evaluate the impact of wind and other factors and adjust your aim if needed before spraying again. TO DISARM Replace safety clip by pushing firmly with thumb until audible snap is heard (fig 3). Check to see if safety is completely in place. No gap should be visible between actuator handle and safety clip. The effects of Counter Assault typically last for approximately 30-45 minutes, and discomfort can be somewhat relieved by washing with lots of cool water. A non-oil based soap (Johnson’s Baby Wash, no tears formula) can be used and will help remove the pepper oil from the skin. Once completed, pat dry with a cloth towel. DO NOT RUB. When used properly pepper sprays have no lasting side effects. If symptoms persist over an hour, seek medical attention. CAUTION! This product is no substitute for common sense.
