There's always been arguments against certain cartridges that never made sense to me.

The 6.5 Creedmoor gets a bad rap, but I've never heard anything bad about the 260 Remington and folks love the 6.5x55 and even shoot moose with them in Sweden The 243 also gets picked on, but the few folks I know that shoot a 6mm Remington stack deer up with them. Heck, I've been thoroughly impressed by the 223 with the right bullet. If you say that out loud though, you might as well be talking bad about somebody's momma.

I think as long as you pick a bullet that's designed for the velocity of the cartridge you're using it in, it's more the Indian than the arrow.
