I know you don't want to hear it, but purchase a 6.8 Remington SPC upper. If you were looking for deer in the 100 to 140 lbs range I would say sure use a 223. But we both know MN deer are going to run bigger than that. Take a min. and check this out:

It will better serve what you want to do with your rifle.
