Like the real estate guys whose motto is "location, location, location", the mantra for hunting handguns is "penetration, penetration, penetration". Solid bullets with flat noses penetrate the best, the straightest, and the deepest. Forget the hollow point or jacketed soft point nonsense. Neither has any place on game animals. Round nose solids leave wound channels that close up behind them, where flat nose solids cut a hole and remove material, leaving a far more devastating wound. With your two choices, mine would be the .45 auto with the 200 grain semi wadcutters.
