John: yeah, will probably not shoot running roe with this rifle either... but sometimes (a lot actually), if not pushed too hard, they'll stop / stand for a second to get their bearings... For the Red Deer it is a concern for me.

Antonio: great little tool you made there!

I wouldn't be too worried about meat damage of a .450 BPE on red deer, as the bullet is quite slow but heavyish. Really not much different to a .45/70 type round.

However on a small roe deer, well easier damaged I think, due to its size.

I was wondering what other members thought too.

As for the .500, .577 etc, I don't know?
