if you can shoot a .5 you don't have a thing to worry about! Any bullet will work you just need to know where to put it.

i could shoot .5 off of a perfectbench in perfect conditions at a paper target too. the thing is, if its freezing out, you're shiverng, frozen, the wind is blowing and its cloudy shooting offhand at a bad angle i dont care what you shoot off of a bench you have to hit that deer hard enough and with a big enough bullet to knock it over as fast as humanly possible.
Now im not knocking the .223 but lets be serious its not now and isnt ever going to be a deer round. if you simply must use it do so with extreme caution and KNOW that the deer is going to die in the fastest most humane way possible.
If you're not fully and completely confident and competent DO NOT use a .223 for a deer rifle go buy a .270
