Re: Lion charge video

Lion hunters and PH's--

Opinions please- You probably won't get but 2 shots off from either a scoped bolt or a double in this situation and distance. The scope should certainly be on a low power for a charge.

Agreed?

Do any of you usually quickly transition between rifles with a bolt 1st/ b/u double combo on a lion hunt after a stalking shot??--Any technical problems come to mind? Is this taboo? In such a situation time to do additional gun handling is obviously at a premium. Screw up and you can easily die!

Is it ONE rifle till one is sure everything has not turned to **** and you are being charged? What have you done on previous safaris if the bolt/double combo was available?
