As long as you know the limitations to that cartridge and gun, it should suffice. I've got one that I haven't time to shoot very much and I plan to do some tweaks to it before I do load development. The factory stuff is fairly accurate using iron sights with my old eyes (from 2"-3 3/4" @ 100 yds.) I take it that you're going to RSA? As much as I love my leverguns, I would rather take something that'll go better than 200 yds as you'll never know what kind shot is available to you when the critter just shows itself momentarily.

Lo do they call to me,
They bid me take my place among
them in the Halls of Valhalla,
Where the brave may live forever.
