No it is not to much for deer. Although, I prefer a 350 Rem mag, 338-06AI, or my newest favorite 300 Weatherby. I like them to drop in their tracks when lung shot.
Don't count on that, no matter what you shoot them with.
Why would you say something ridiculous like that?
It isn't ridiculous. Lung shot deer can go pretty far, even when shot with a powerhouse rifle.
