Yes it would. You have no idea how ballistics actually work, nor biology of you think this way.

You'll blow way more guts out the other side of a deer with a 70gr hornady and a .22-250 than you will with a .338 WM and a 250gr Swift.

Dying of sepsis and organ failure is just that. Its days and weeks sometimes and because it's not bleeding out calibre has nothing to do with it.

Give your head a shake man. Talk to a veteranarian that hunts. I know several.

People that are supporting calibre restrictions based on how they perform gut shooting strike me as clueless and unrealistic. The point is to hit the front half and that's what it all should be based on.
