This is a very good point and the reason some states ban calibers over .36 for small game. Lousyanna, for instance allows only up to .36 for small game and down to .44 for big game (thus eliminating the .40). In some areas you'll get into trouble toting a .45 or .50 after squirrel...many areas have rules against carrying big bore rifles during small game season...and carrying big bore rifles without a big game license!!!
