Elephant Gun?

well looks like im buying that 8 bore flintlock rifle or maybe i need a 2 bore who knows yea 2 bore full grown males weigh about 19,400 pounds and should be about 13 ft at the shoulder
 
Why would you gut it? The meat is on the outside. Usually 3 hours will take care of it.

So you would clean it like a whale, being 8 tons that would be a good idea. I still think you would need some help and I think it would take more than 3 hours. I would be interested to help you and then we could time it to see who is right:).

I have particpated in the cutting up of a couple African elephants. You take the skin off the top side in three panels, bone out that side, then flip it over and repeat. Three guys cutting is about right, the more help you have the slower it gets.
 
So anyone wanna volunteer to try a frontal brain shot with a 7x57 on one of these?

Spear hunt would be cool too, but Tim Wells will probably do it before any of us.
 
Here is how you do it.
