I am not going to get into a debate with you or the pages you cite. What I am trying to explain is that there is a gigantic gap between what is written and what actually takes place while hunting there.
When I was last in Zim I was offered the game rangers 338 to use on a problem elephant. I addition, a PH who worked there for years, encouraged his clients to use a 338 with 250 Nosler partitions on buff because he thought it worked better than a 375. I could go on but there is no point in doing so.
Lastly, the 270 Win is considered a 7mm in Namibia even though it is not a .284" bore diameter. At least that is what I was told by a number of folks who actually outfit there.
I was there as recently as 15 Sept and folks were shooting eland with a 25-06 camp rifle.
