When I was young and had good eyes, I killed several Sitka Blacktails with hard cast SWC 200 Gr bullets in a Govt. Model 70 series 45 ACP lived on Kodiak at the time and deer were there in hi numbers.
Big difference shooting snowshoe hares with the RN and SWC also , big Halibut would not swim off with the SWC also where the RN they would. Close range on the deer under 25 yards.
