Does a 454 kill deer any faster than a 44 Mag?
I would say yes. Is this a trick question?
I have shot deer thru both lungs with 1500fps 240gr load and same with a 250gr 2000fps load. There was a huge difference in wounds.
Also, you got range to consider. If you hit a deer at 100 yards with a 454, its like hitting it at 15 with a 44 mag.
