For Mule Deer you don't need the S&W 500 - I used mine for Cape Buffalo. The S&W 460 is outstanding for your game at 100 yards. Scope it, using a Warne mount and a Bushnell scope with rainguard. The mount and scope will hold up to the recoil of the heavy loadings, should you need them for bigger game. Hornady makes an excellent round for deer at 200 gr with their SST bullet. You can also use the lighter .454 and .45LC in this revolver. I suggest the 8 3/4" bbl for hunting at 100 yards. These S&W X Frame revolvers are truely an incredible design and are a pleasure to shoot.

Uncle Mike's or Bianchi both make a soft shoulder holster to fit the gun with scope which will provide protection.
