[QUOTE="johnp034, post: 422693, member: 25651"] Don't know about your H&R, but the new Savage P220 is a fantastic 20 gauge slug gun. MOA accuracy and I believe the energy levels from a 20 gauge, 265 gr. saboted, copper jacketed bullet are equal to, or exceed the energy of a .50 cal. muzzle loader at the same velocity. I would not be afraid to take an elk at 125-150 yards. Also, I have shot Whitetails thru both shoulders with centerfire rifles and had them run off into the sunset, so it isn't always the caliber of the weapon that dictates dropping an animal in its tracks. jm2c [/QUOTE]
