I'll only take a head shot if the doe is inside of 30 yards and standing there looking at me.

if memory serves me, if you use a handgun for hunting it has to be a revolver. (excluding TC )

That is only in firearms restricted areas. Anywhere else you just need to meet the min barrel length and caliber restrictions.

Low odds shot, how about a double lung shot?

 :yeah:
 
With ICEMAN here, seen too many starving to death deer with jaws blown off - miserable sight to behold
 
deers brainpan isn't very large, 45 isn't going to penetrate the nasal cavity then continue on through to the neck or spine area so you got a doe with it's nose shattered and it dies a slow painful death.
 
If you can shoot an egg at 30 yards over and over without missing then I take my words back

When did they change it, in the past the 45ACP was not a legal caliber to hunt with.  I just checked the regs and it appears that it is now a legal caliber.  :dunno:

It changed quite a few years ago, when they were in a "simplify the reg's" mode. Now there's pretty much no restrictions on handguns used for hunting. Basically if it's bigger than a 22 rimfire and has a 4 inch or longer barrel, it's legal.
