I once took a deer at 50 yards with a 357 mag 6 inch barrel SS colt revolver with red dot scope. The bullet shattered and I was lucky enough that a small piece hit the heart and killed the deer relatively quick. I was very lucky since there was little penetration. I sold the gun and bought a 44 mag for hunting deer when i wanted to use a handgun. In my opinion the 9mm is not a round for hunting deer even by a stretch.
