Hunting is something we do for fun. Very few of us actually need to hunt for the meat and it would be cheaper to buy at the grocery store anyway.

I believe in hunting with whatever you enjoy using. A bolt action rifle is the most efficent tool for killing deer, but lots of guys just prefer to hunt with all types of weapons. I know several guys who have used nothing but a long bow for the last 20 years.

If you are willing to master a handgun and hunt within it's limitations go have fun.
