RE: How far will a 40 cal or a 9mm Carbine kill a deer?
I find myself often amused by people looking down so much on the 9mm. Think around the world how many animals and people the 9mm has taken down. i know in handguns most people think if it ain't a 1911 in 45 or 10mm it couldnt kill a muskrat. Now I don't think to well of the thought of deer hunting with it. But if you are well practiced and have a closer shot and nothing else to use I'd say alright. I have a feather industries AT-9 carbine. It's actually quite accurate at 50 yards. not shot 100 with it but I will soon. I am about to scope it and use it for a truck coyote gun and if during big game I happened upon the opportunity at 50 yards or so I'd be confident enough to go for it.
