if you think about it the 9mm 115 grains is bigger than some small, but adequite deer rifles .243, 25.06,etc
As a 25.06 user you are a little off line with that comment. Although some may use 100g. rounds for deer most use 115-120g bullets. The 25.06 pushes a 120g. round at aprox. 3000 fps, very far superior to anything the 9mm could ever achieve. Adequite is not accurite as the round maintains 1200 ft/lbs at 400 yards. It is far better than adequite and retains more energy than many popular deer rounds such as the 30-30 for example.
