They are made in 50 or 54cal only.

Good rifles but for the same price, i'd rather order the lyman great plains rifle kit from midsouth.

Always order the biggest caliber offered.

Cabela's rifles are made by Investarms. Investarms and Lyman are basically the same company. Their rifles are good quality. A friend of mine shoots a Cabela's Hawkins in .54 caliber and it floors the deer. As for the .45 caliber, in a traditional rifle I tend to migrate to the largest caliber I can, for hunting reasons. For target shooting the smaller caliber would be fine. And believe me, a .45 can take deer. You just have to adjust your distance to target.
