Nothing wrong hunting with a 1911 on the right game. Good shooting!

If I could get the doe tags like I could in 2012, I might try that.

Hell Yeah Dan, done the same thing at 16 yards with my 185 Barnes carry load on a little 7pt buck, hit him in the shoulder, he hunched up at the shot, wobbled off 35 yards and fell over.
Not a pass through though, he caught all of it, that is a very nice BIG doe, a lot of good eating right there.

Good job man! Is it just me or does there seem to be more and more proof that it doesn't take a hand cannon to kill a deer?

I've killed quite a few feral hogs with the 45acp, using a 230gr WFN LBT Cast bullet. I've also killed a couple of Whitetails with the 230gr Remington Golden Saber JHP. Both bullets will kill deer graveyard dead at less than 50 yards, in my personal experiences.

Hello 35WhelenNut Too many Guy's are fixed on using Magnum Caliber's that are more Over Kill than anything else and the Older proven caliber's are forgot about. The .45 ACP is a fine caliber for Deer Hunting if used wisely. Shot Placement is King with any caliber but when using the .45 ACP it makes the challenge that Much More. Here is my test target shown with my .45 S&W wheel Gun. I Plan on Taking it with me this week afield and can Only Hope a deer comes within range for me to dump with it. It is Now wearing a very rare set of walter Roper custon shooting stock's made back in the Mid to late 1930's time span. Regards, The General
