I’ve always liked the .303 Lee Enfield

Except for the Taylor Book “Pondero” I’ve never read much of guys toting Lee Enfields in Africa. Quite formidable in the late 1800’s, 10-11 shots with .300 Savage power. I don’t like the cock on closing, but they ran pretty slick. The later #4 actually has sights I can use. I still have a #5 Jungle Carbine somewhere.

I think Bell also said he took some Elephants with the older 215 gr. full patch military ammo. Pointed bullets rivet and tumble. But it’s quite a testimony.
