Jeff,
If my memory serves me right, this bull went around 1700lbs. It took 3 shots from a .416 Rem. I'm really pleased to hear that you enjoyed your Eland hunt. I hear too many hunters say that they don't want to hunt one as they remind them too much of cattle, which is a real shame.
They are just such an impressive animal, which will give you the same challenge as any other plains game animal.
Thanks for sharing your bull. Hell of a trophy you got there! Congratulations.
Take Care,
Marius
