Well, I guess that depends on the size of the elephant and how far you want to track him. LOL

I haven't chronographed the load but as I said, it's intended to be a small game load, so I was content with 30 yard results. I do have to aim slightly left with the bullseye load at 30 yards to make the medium and full power loads hit right at 100 yards. Not much, but a little. I may tweak the load some more in an effort to achieve nirvana but am happy with the results as is. I wouldn't hesitate to fire it 100 yards but have not done so as of yet.

Thanks. I was curious to know if you liked the load out to 100 yards or so.
