The old timers, Sleous and others, used to shoot elephants with muzzle loaders.  I have heard of some people using muzzle's to hunt cape buffalo.  So, I agree with Encore, the sky's the limit.

Encore28, is correct the sky is the limit. I have personally harvested deer and elk with my muzzleloader. Know your limitations and practice and the muzzleloader can be a very effective tool.
