Clark,
Although I thought about going on a Safari (if I could ever afford it), I've never hunted and have no plans to do so.

I'm sure having this gun made for me is fulfilling some psychological void or disturbance in my life (in a masacistic sort of way). This could be a "pen-- envy", "mine is bigger than yours", or "keeping up with the Jone's" sort of manical egotistical thing.

I know, I've digressed rapidly to a Neanderthalic period in my genetic makeup.

To answer your question, no. But, I could make the .600 avalable for rent to those hunters who want to be the FIRST, to down a bull elephant with a handgun.

Everything being said, the closer I get to D-Day, the more apprehensive (and nervous) I get.
