Hi Daryl,

I thought the NfB (LC) load was 650 @ 1850 ft/s.

The original BP ballistics according to my info:

2 3/4" 520 @ 1725 ft/s and 560 @ 1650

3" 560 @ 1740, 570 @ 1725 and 610 @ 1650.

Any of those should be all right for a lung shot at elephant, but only if you feel lucky I guess.

I'll try a heavier load next time and see what happens.

Cheers,

Hubert
