Will it kill a deer at that range? yes. But so will a .22. The lack of sights would lead me to question the ethics of using it.

Can you shoot groups with slugs at that range? If so go for a double lung shot and dead is dead................Set up a stand like you would for bowhunting close and personal..............Harold

A .410 slug can and do take Deer every year. I would say your range would be further than 35yds. as long as you feel confident at the range your shooting it will do the job. Good Luck
