All due respect, but what your buddy was telling* you is not open for debate or even an opinion. He's flat out wrong. Please don't take this as a personal attack.

*His reasoning being that a 150 gr bullet fired from each would be going so fast comming out of the RUM that it would "laser through" a deer at 50 yards and make a pin hole so quick and smooth that no shock would transfer to the deer and the wound channel would be tiny compared to the slower 30.06 which would impart significant "shock" into the deer.

I'm not sure what overkill is, but I see no need to put up that level of recoil to shoot deer. More than enough gun shouldn't bring a hunter a higher level of confidence. That hubris can blow many a shot.
