yep, all of that. Plus enough powder and bullet weight and it should do the job.

The old 50 cal. (plus) Sharps were fine rifles in their day.

Modern version should be devastating.

Nothing wrong with long range shooting for my original JM Marlin Ballard #5 Pacific (circa 1877-78) in 45-70. It is deadly out to several hundred yards
