Thanks everyone for the comments

Bonanza:
The second elephant pictured was shot with the 450/400 Lancaster, I hit him a bit forward on a quartering
away brain shot. He started to go down, stumbled but got upright, so myself & my PH put a couple of more
rounds in his chest. He then went down, only taking a couple of steps.

The first elephant pictured with my H&H was a side brain shot & went right down on the first shot. I much
prefer this scenario! There is definitely a learning curve to elephant hunting.

Congrats on adding some history & character to your H&H as well
