Almost too much power for deer hunting though.

I have a 300 mag and it's overkill for almost everything lol. I suppose if you were hunting a polar bear or a lion it would be the ideal weapon as you certainly don't want a charging rack of teeth to simply be pissed off when you shoot it, but I can't even imagine hunting around here, for example , with it. The average deer is 120-150 lbs, no need for a weapon of that caliber.
