A: Thanks for reaching out Christopher! It wouldn't be my top recommendation for a deer hunting cartridge, but the 223 Rem's not ideal for deer in and of itself. This round could certainly get the job done with proper aim, of course. Honestly, although it's marketed for self-defense I believe Speer's Gold Dot LE 223 would give you more of the penetration and expansion you'd want for dropping a buck: luckygunner.com/223-rem-62-grain-sp-speer-gold-dot-le-20-rounds

A: Yes sir, this ammo is suitable for a 5.56 AR-style rifle and it would effectively neutralize a human-sized threat to your safety.
