LOL! Well stated.I think almost any sane person would classify a 700 nitro express as overkill for deer unless you are hunting them in an area where you might also have to stop a Rhino in mid charge. That being the case I think it well establishes the case that "Overkill" does in fact exist.
I am glad someone out there has some common sense. Over gunned got turned into overkill by some people that wanted to rant. I come from a state where the only requriements for a deer rifleis that it must be manually operated and shoot a centerfire cartridge. I have seen many deer harvested with223 and smaller cartridges.
