Re: elephant hunting with the .375hh

In one of my earlier posts i had narrated an incident,which i had personally witnessed, when a hunter went for the brain shot and screwed it up by injuring the animal.The beast turned around and charged the hunter but the PH in trying to save his client confronted the beast and got killed.Had the PH been ready and taken a followup shot he might have been alive today.I'm sure the client would not have objected.
Apart from this i would like to know as to why one should go for the brain shot when there is such a big target to shoot at.Can we not go for the heart shot and if so what is the min.cal.required.I don't think a 375HH is suitable for a heart shot on an elephant,perhaps a 416 or something bigger.
