I've got no skin in this game so I'm not taking sides................but I've never understood the argument that specific calibers were perfectly fine for deer because "if you do your job/put the bullet where it's supposed to go, it stops them in their tracks". But hell, a .22lr will kill a deer dead if you center-punch them in the heart.

I realize every poster on this here chit-chat board is the reincarnation of Carlos Hathcock, but for other folks that are more human, it seems you'd want something as forgiving as possible, not something that "gets the job done every time, as long as you do your job."
