    .45 Caliber: Deer?

    True. Proper shot selection is the hunters job.

    .45 Caliber: Deer?

    This. Shooting a deer in the brachial plexus will drop it in its tracks and is my shot of choice when possible with a firearm. Bob Deer and Deer Hunting did a good article on this in 2017: https://www.deeranddeerhunting.com/content/blogs/drop-a-deer-in-its-tracks

    .45 Caliber: Deer?

    I wouldn’t blame the .45 caliber for that. I once did the same for a doe as a finishing shot many years ago with a 2-3/4” 12g foster slug which also didn’t exit. It was a long time ago but I’m thinking 60ish yards from a scoped gun. I remember being astonished that it didn’t exit I agree with...

    .45 Caliber: Deer?

    At the end of the day shot placement is king.

    Thoughts on my Frizzen?

    They are being raided for their “low-background metal” as it was never exposed to the radioactive fallout and has no traces of radio nuclides. https://edconway.substack.com/p/the-eerie-story-of-low-background Thanks to @Compressorguy for the education. It was interesting to a newbie like me. Bob
