I also had a bad experience after a side brain shot on an elephant.

In all cases I would rather prefer the heart shot , but that also partly depends on the opinion of the PH.

Better to use a bigger caliber for the heart shot. By this opportunity I noticed the good working of the cartridge 500 Jeffery.

Heart shot is probably a better option for most .. however there are times that is not an option..

One we hunted had winded us and come straight on at a good pace.. brained here at 16 yards... .416.. Barnes solids.. remarkable bullet actually..
