[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 211408, member: 704"] I have killed deer with 357, 44 mag, and 45 ACP with a 24lb recoil spring and pushing 230 gr bullets to 1200 fps. I had a TC, but in 223. A friend has shot half a dozen deer with a TC in 45/70 and that sucker boots. For a while I was really interested in the Savage Striker in 308. Now I keep thinking about a Glock 10mm with extended barrel. The only advise I can give is with the low velocities of most handguns it's best to use large diameter like 40 caliber and up. I know it was like night and day between the 357 and the 44 mag. With that said a TC with the 16 inch barrel and you can shoot about any caliber you want, but if you go with a barrel that it shorter your better off with 44 mag or 45 colt. [/QUOTE]
