Larger diameter bullets allow more room for error?

[QUOTE="dmj, post: 1537586, member: 73479"] All the calibers mentioned will more than do the job if put into the kill zone. Personally I do like the larger bullets for elk and even some large mule deer can be fairly tough. One question I have is. Doesn't the wind effect larger bullets less than smaller? Another words a 230gr. 30 caliber bullet would drift less than a140 gr. 26 caliber bullet. If my thinking is correct (and it probably isn't) couldn't this alone come to play in the margin of error?
