    What round for elephant?

    I'm a new gun owner and worry about what round would be appropriate for this situation?

    Would a Taurus Judge be useful? I don't like the grip on a Glock and can't hit the broad side of a pachyderm with it.

    A big one.

    What do I win?



    But seriously, I'd defer to GJM; even more, if he lived a bit further south.

    I've seen vid of South African troops or game rangers culling a lot of elephants with FALs.

    Made me think of the elephants in Larson's far side cartoons.

    A 4 bore double rifle, because chances like that only come once. Style counts.
