75 yards? Sounds like you have the answer with the 44 Mag. It's a great close range deer caliber. My father hunted with one for years and years and his Marlin 336 in 44 Mag now resides in my safe...all 4 of my brothers and I took deer with that rifle at one time or another and 2 took elk with it. We always used 240 grain HP's but 200g rounds will do the job as well. I like lever guns for close range shooting, the handle quickly and no optics required. Other options I would consider if you want to buy something is a 30-30, 35 Rem, 32 Spcl, 357 Mag...all available in reasonably priced lever guns and will certainly do the job for your hunt.

In the woods of LA, she will be just fine with what you already have.
Good luck. |
Your .44 Magnum will do fine. I've used my M94 in .44 out to about 90 yards without any problems. I'd certainly take it over a Kalashnikov.
