I have scheduled a hunt for Buff/tuskless Ele in 2008 in Zim

Advise please!!

Is there substantial risk for overpenetration with solids on a broadside heart lung shot on a sizable Ele? You take the initial shot and then go for the broadside if needed and offered.

One PH I spoke with says the risk of complete penetration from a 500 NE is minimal and not a problem even in herds.He said usually sees both lungs hit with with any decent broadside angle shot with a Double.

Obviously I will do just as he advises while when hunting and he has shot hundreds of Ele--

Is complete broadside penetration from a 500NE solid on Ele of any concern??
