Elephant hunting rifle, bullets and scope ?

Which rifle, scope and bullets to hunt
elephants in Zimbabwe and Namibia ?

Have you asked your outfitter for recommendations?

I have several Elephant capable cartridges, 416 Rigby with 410g RNSP or 410g solid @ 2550fps comes to mind, 375 Weatherby with 300g PP @ 2850fps or 300g RN Solid @ 2830fps. 458 Lott with 500g RNSP.
Maybe my Searcy 500 Nitro 3 1/4" with 570g solid or soft, or even the 600OK with 900g RNSN, no solid currently available unfortunately.
My favourite is the 416 Rigby, it's fast and flat shooting with trajectory similar to the 375 Weatherby but with greater hitting power and awesome penetration.

Cheers.

950 JDJ Fat Mac should do

What about one of these?
505 Gibbs running 600g PP @ 2350fps.

It's after a certain number of posts on the forum I think.

Since it is LRH, how about a 20MM Anzio.
