I lost my original post, so I will summarize my thoughts briefly (I am constrained for time).
You're going to have to make choices even if you don't like them in order to fill the holes in your gear. I have no doubt you're doing fine in normal 5-man content, however this can't be contributed solely to gear differences. Players who "outgear" you have most likely earned their items when they had items of lesser quality. You have to consider this in relation to not your own skill (though it never hurts to improve upon technique), but in relation to how your talent build may be affecting you.
For testing purposes, you should log & review battles from tank & spank fights in normal 5-man content and compare to a longer, tougher battle (heroic level maybe). Dong the heroics will get you gear, whether you think it's ugly or not & may help you more than you realize. At the same time, doing heroics may also present the flaws in your build. Unfortunately, I am unable to test these things (esp. since I am not an axesmith, etc.) so my ability & knowledge to answer your questions completely are limited to an extent.
I look forward to your results & conclusions, updates in the future!

I just want to reiterate that while I don't know your situation or the players you were with, you have to be careful when comparing yourself to others.
What I'm trying to stress to you is that while this hunter may have had incredible gear, he may not have actually been trying (or able, dependant on the tank) to put out consistant numbers. This could possibly give you the illusion (based solely on damage charts) that you were close to his
potential
damage output.
In essence, you were doing fine & obviously if your group finished the dungeon DPS was plentiful. The numbers don't really lie, your damage was very close to his. Keep your eyes peeled, it never hurts to maintain vigilance where your performance & efficiency are concerned.
Keep up the work & let us know if you find out anything else.
