Jacketed pistol bullets are not suitable for big game unless the velocity is very low or the bullet heavy, like 300 grains or more.
The inlines drive the bullets too fast and they may produce craters rather than penetrating.
This is why many handgun hunters use hard cast Keith style semi-wadcutters.

Had you shot the deer with a 50 caliber RB and 75-90 grains of BP be would have been killed.
But the folks promoting the inlines tell us the RB is useless since it does not have sufficient sectional density for good penetration then con people into using projectiles that really do fail to penetrate in some circumstances.
