I'm not sold on 223, just looking. Gonna take him to shoot the 17hmr today. See how he tries to hold steady.

.223 will def kill. Im going to do like my brother did. He bought each of his sons an AR when they were young and thats what they started deer hunting with. Adjustable stock makes it a good weapon for them. The oldest just shot his first buck (5 point) with his last week.
Its a good excuse to pick up a couple AR's

My daughter and niece killed several deer with my 22-250 and none ran more than 50yds but you have very little blood to trail. I trusted both to make good shots because both were good shooters.
I used good bullets not varmit style bullets. I doubt you can find anything other than varmit bullets in 223.
