Pistol/revolver deer

[J_Dahl]

Anyone handgun hunt? I had a bucket list item to shoot a deer with handgun. First was a doe from a ground blind at 25 yards with an inherited from my uncle colt trooper 357 with a handloaded 158 xtp.

2nd was a small buck at 15 yards with a Glock in 10mm shooting sig 180. Lungs where mush, no exit. Recovered on offside. Ran 40 yards and fell over.

No pics but shot a nice Maine 8pt from the crotch of an oak tree about 35 years ago. Knocked him over with my Super Blackhawk using 240gn XTPs.

I found the bullet in his hide. It's around here somewhere. Was about 89% intact and over 1/2" diameter. Thumped him good.

Would like to do that again some day but probably not.

Killed several deer with my Dan Wesson .41, still enjoy hunting with it.

Ruger super Blackhawk 44 mag with the leverevolution ammo used to be my go to when I would get doe tags.

I haven't in probably 5 years. Used a TC Contender in 7-30 Waters mostly as far back as 30 years. . Its almost cheating. Dropped a good many decent/good bucks at 100-150 yards.
Heart punched one at a dead run about 50 yards from a ladder stand. 120 gr SGK
