Used to? When did they stop?

They are actually known to use .222's and .223's for this duty as well. Quite effectively. Bell used a 7mm Mauser to kill many of his thousands of elephants. If you really know how to hunt, how to really get in close, and just where to shoot them, you can make it work. "It's not the arrow, it's the Indian..."
