May I Suggest This Might Be a Satisfactory Solution?
to the skynet problem (via Stephen Den Beste): a CZ-550 Safari in one of several elephant-stopping caliber.
One mistake the movies made repeatedly is assuming a shotgun can damage hardened steel (or even more exotic) alloys. My CZ-550 chambered for the venerable .375 Holland & Holland. Modern tungsten-cored bullets readily available and are reasonably priced. Even the medium-bore .375 will penetrate over 3 feet of bone with ease, yet the recoil is comparable to the 12 gauge shotguns so prominently featured in the movies.
