  We present the result of an empirical model for elastic $pp$ scattering at
LHC which indicates that the asymptotic black disk limit ${\cal
R}=\sigel/\sigtot\rightarrow1/2$ is not yet reached and discuss the
implications on classical geometrical scaling behavior. We propose a
geometrical scaling law for the position of the dip in elastic $pp$ scattering
which allows to make predictions valid both for intermediate and asymptotic
energies.
