Anyone have any ideas as to where I could line up a non-trophy elephant hunt using my S&W 500 revolver? (Don't laugh - it's been done!)

I took a large stink-bull giraffe with it back in 2006. One shot in the neck and the ground shook. I plan on using 440-gr. punched bullets, or 600-gr. hard lead. I've taken elephant before, but that was with a Searcy .577.

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
