I love that conversion and always wanted to get it done. I have killed many deer with the Old Army but range must be closer because of accuracy.
Maybe someday I can afford to have it done.
That is a nice deer and a great shot.

Congrats! Very nice deer with an awesome handgun.
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.
