Anyone have any ideas as to where I could line up a non-trophy elephant hunt using my S&W 500 revolver? (Don't laugh - it's been done!)

I took a large stink-bull giraffe with it back in 2006. One shot in the neck and the ground shook. I plan on using 440-gr. punched bullets, or 600-gr. hard lead. I've taken elephant before, but that was with a Searcy .577.

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.
