table traversal

I have a question about table traversal.

Suppose I have two chains, in this order in a table.

iptables -A FORWARD -s 10.1.2.3 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -s 10.1.2.0/255.255.255.0 -j DROP

Under this scenario a packet from 10.1.2.3 would fall under both rules.
But would the packets be dropped or allowed to go through? Once it has
found a match for a packet will it traverse the rest of the table or
simply pass to the next one?

Will
