Paul - the .577 BPE was popular for Elephants by some hunters as noted in Greener's book by some hunter's writing in "The Field" I think it was. The heavy load was the 650 and 160 or 165gr. powder me thinks he remembers. The ability to use a hardened bullet raised this calibre from the smaller game fields, to include dangerous game.
