I agree completely, I guess my point was that it is never just one aspect, as some would believe, but a myriad of factors that go into any equation like this. I own a .270 and a .30-06, and the .270 doesn't see much action during deer season, but it would do the job just fine.
We could go on for weeks about this issue, (oh, wait, we have <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />) but two of my favorite quotes I think sum up the issue quite well;
" A hit with a .22 is better than a miss with a .45"
and
"Sometimes it is entirely appropriate to kill a fly with a sledgehammer"
