Absolutely, and another book I'd recommend for Weatherby afficionados is both books by Elgin Gates, Trophy Hunting in Africa/Asia. All sorts of interesting tid-bits, including the taking of an elephant (brain shot) with an experimental 378 necked down to 30 in 1959...

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
