I killed a big buck with a .380, it had been injured by a car. Busted a back leg and was crawling through a pasture. Highway patrol officer who had given me the salvage tag at the scene didn't want to use his AR, pistol or shotgun. I couldn't blame him though. That guy was dressed to the nines in a pressed uniform and probably didn't want to clean a gun just over a deer. All I had was a Glock 42.
That 90 gr. XTP round took that deer through it's swollen, rutted up neck at 15 yards and dropped him dead. As for actual deer hunting, no.
