Rule #1: the firearm should be sized for the expected game. What is good for a 300 pound deer would be inadequate for a 1000 pound elk or moose. All firearms are accurate enough if you are within the range. Long shots are frowned upon, as are shots in heavy brush.

I have a feeling I am going to learn a lot more from this thread than I expected. Thanks.

Uh, inquiring minds want to know where those 300 pound deer and 1,000 pound elk reside at?
