.. I’m betting he’d have another ‘system’ for that.
No betting or guessing required if people bother to read Bells books.
his 'other system' was a George Gibbs .256 bore Mannlicher dedicated to all his other meat/skin game getting
outside of DG.
irrelevant some say? , well no, since it falls right smack bang in the category of high SD- low recoil of the O.P.
Where at times Bell may not have shot a single elephant for a month or more, his .256 Gibbs meat getter got
a constant workout/had a full time job.
