Is it true the reload rate of the elephant is 1/2 of the hippo? Or have I mistaken it for the late war period?
Nice job. Keep up the good work. |

You're thinking of the rifles chambered for Indian Elephants.
The larger rifles chambered for African Elephants have an even slower reload rate.
Although, I have heard rumors of an automatic (10 rounds) being developed somewhere on a secret base in Antarctica. |

H. Rider Haggard who wrote the Quatermain series describes his hero's big bore weapon as an Express 500. Loved it. Q and pals to impress a local tribe, on approach, shot up some hippos to impress everybody. Except those were sacred hippos! Dang. |
