Default RE: .223 loads for deer hunting???

I shot my test loads and 1 of the four grouped well. I loaded up 4 loads 2 for my Ruger 77 and 2 for my fathers contender. Both guns shoot winchester factory loads in 1/2" groups. My 77 shot about a 3" group with the H335 powder and a 1" group with the AA2460 powder. My dads contender shot about 3" with both powders. It looks like I will have to play around with my dads a bit more.
