I love single shot rifles. I have 4 Ruger #1's from 250 Savage to 450-400 and 4 custom guns 3 on the #1 action 7MM-08, 300 Savage, 300 H&H and one High Wall in 38-55. I find myself reaching for one of these before any other rifle. After all Shrapnal said it best. It's hunting not shooting and the first shot determines everything afterwards. Aim small miss small.
