    From what I have read of Taylor, he wasn't much of a gun guy. I would take Walter Bell over him.

    Let us remember also that much of the government culling of elephant in the 1970's/80's was done with SLR's and .308 military ammo.

    Harry Rayne was another New Zealander from Dunedin who hunted with WDM Bell in the Karamojo around 1907/08, using the .318 Westley Richards - basically the same thing as a .30/06 with heavy bullet.
