Didn't you kill one or two with a handgun?

Not anything with a handgun yet. Gonna try with the 10mm next year

243, 7mm-08, 7mm mag, 308 (2 different rifles), 30-06, 300win mag, 350 rem mag, 44 mag all kills. Working on adding a marlin 336 44 mag to the kill list as well as a 12ga slug

I didn't know the 336 was ever offered in 44mag. Thought that was the 1894.

.243 first deer, 30-06 a bunch with this as a youngster, got a .280 in high school and killed a bunch of em growing up with this, .300WIN MAG a few with this too. I agree with what huntandfish1 said, shot placement is the main thing. I may catch some on this next comment but I don't care because it works for me. With a rifle, I always try to shoot through the front shoulder if the buck is broadside. Quartering shots I'll aim for where I think the heart is and then front on shot same deal, where the heart is. May be more info than what was initially requested but just sharing my $0.02.
