Default RE: over analyzing caliber

..... So, while I enjoy the magnum vs. standard debate, the 30-06 vs. the 270 debate, etc. Let's be honest that pretty much any caliber you choose, practice with, and can shoot well will do the job. .....
Agreed! Select a good/reasonable cartridge, good ammo/bullets, PRACTICE, and given decent shot placement, at reasonable ranges, the deer, etc. won't know the difference.
The gun makers just like to bring out something new to try to get us to buy more rifles,
handguns, etc. (UltraMags, WSM's, 500S&W, etc.). The old standards will still get it done,
and cheaper too, but won't sell many new guns that way.
