I never got the reasoning behind using a handgun to finish off a deer when you're carrying a perfectly good rifle.

Ever shoot a deer "behind the ear" at contact distance with a big rifle? The game and parks even draws a picture of where to shoot a downed animal - base of the skull ...... I shot a doe at the base of the skull (from behind) with a .243 when I was 16 ...... bad decision: skull pretty much exploded and I was wearing blood and brains the rest of the afternoon........
