Deer are much tougher than the average human (although certain PCP-fueled psychos have been known to have incredible ability to function despite lethal wounds!). Buckshot in anything less than 12 GA especially is a compromised solution for deer. I stopped using it many years ago (right around the time I got my first 30-30).
