    When I lived in the US I once used a borrowed 20 bore and hunted whitetail with sabot slugs (when the 2 week rifle season closed). They were 300 grains from memory and surprisingly accurate to around 50m. I shot a single deer and it did a lot of damage but dropped it on the spot. That said, I would go .303 as the others have said above.
