Accurate moments of maximum likelihood and moment estimators for the scale and shape parameters of a two parameter gamma density are given, the former being tabulated over a segment of the parameter space. In addition, joint acceptance regions are given for a particular case. The three parameter model is also considered and comments made on second order asymptotics for the maximum likelihood estimators.
