Actually I have come to the conclusion that the 45-70 is capable of killing elephant with a lead cast bullet at 1200 FPS, and I would advise all those who love this caliber to use it in that manor as soon as possible....

How many does that make Mac?

Ray......I can't resist. If you shoot an elephant in "the manor" then you have no manners.

"cretainly" is a pretty good word, too! I might have to use that one.
