    To be fair that thinking about my shooting career that it has been spent in the back blocks fencing that there didn't seem to be many small calibres .
    For myself I take minimum 6.5 for deer as a lot of my shots have to be at distance as can't get closer because of terrain to take the shot.
    I did use my 22-250 on reds for a while but after having a can't find the shot deer moment I went back to my 300wsm or I can always find the deer moment!
    If for some reason your shot gets compromised there's no replacement for displacement.
