Questions pondered as follow up from a recent excellent Lion article posted--

You are on a lion hunt and shoot a big male Tanzanan Lion with your scoped 375-- You think you gut shot him and he has run off into the bush.You will be facing 500 pounds of teeth,claws, muscle, and sinew totally committed to kill you and rip you to shreds.

This stalk may take over an hour + at maximum alertness.You will need a stopping Double at point blank range that is not overly heavy and can be brought to bear instantly.

What handy Double rifle would you prefer?? Where would you try to shoot the Lion at short, short range--center of mass or somewhere in the CNS??

Thanks to all forum members for any input and info supplied!!
