I would hate you to make such a decision based on just my single observation. Perhaps you can e-mail a guide that provides hunts for these and ask them their oppinion.
I would be curious why the recommend the bigger gun. If it is because these critters tend to be able to go a long way after hit or a nature to go into places that are really hard to pack the animal out would be good reason for me to want a big enough gun to put the animal down ASAP.
Good Luck and it is hard for someone like me that only hunts a few states here on the East Coast of the USA to give you informed advise...
