[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 643026, member: 41442"] I hunted regular deer season (not crop damage shooting) with handguns for about 15 years. I quit because my old eyes just dont let me shoot past 50 yards with a handgun anymore. I hunted and shoot cast bullets in handguns about exclusively. With a handgun and cast i take shoulder shots whenever possible but it doesnt make much sense to shoot barnes bullets into a shoulder of a deer out of a high velocity rifle because behind the shoulder shots dont anchor them. I can shoot a ballistic tip or a sierra behind the shoulder and usually drop deer and the only meat wasted at all is the ribs. Even a barnes tsx through the shoulder wastes a good part of those shoulders. [/QUOTE]
