SonnyThomas Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 I've taken deer with 44s, 45 LCs, and 454s, but then they can be used for other things. The Smith and Ruger were down loaded a bit, 800 fps, but used 240 gr cast bullets. Believe it or not, the holes in the rabbits and squirrels looked like that left by a .22.
