A friend of mine has told me that he has actually fired a .30-06 at a deer and the bullet went through the deer, just making a hole. And he tells me that he has got more deer with a 30/30 bullet then all others. I think that the real issues are:
1. Velocity of bullet
2. Damage the bullet does (mushrooming bullet) as it pushes deer flesh out in front of the speeding bullet.
3. girth of the deere, larger deer needs larger bullet to do more damage.
4. If you are hunting deer and you have an AR type rifle then you can fire a quick second shot without unshouldering the rifle. Put 1 shot in the lungs and another in the rear leg maybe. Be sure its legal to hunt with a magazine type rifle.
I have not heard of anyone shooting a deer witha .44 magnum. Ruger makes a lever action .44 and a semiauto called the deerfield carbine (at least they used to make this)
