My old H&R 45/70 with 500gr slugs was as quiet as any .22 with subs but when it hit there was a loud smack !
It had a home made can with rolled fly screen mesh, worked a great, the next one was a larger factory model & not as good really .
I think 125yd would be Ok on deer if you have a range finder & use flat nose slugs, most likely more with a dial scope ?
I even killed Bantang Bulls with it, as I remember it had more energy than a normal 44Mag factory load .
