Cool 223 for deer

I've gotta ruger mini 14 with a leupold 1-4-28 vx3 scope on it and I hardly ever use the gun but am thinking about carrying it on a doe day just to try it out. Am I crazy? I'd limit shots to 60 yards and perfec broadside only so what kinda ammo should I use? I got a box of 55gr Winchester powerpoints and a box of 55gr Remington corloks will they work or do I need better ammo. I've got better deer guns I just wanna use that rifle once at least all it dose is collect dust. Also do y'all think it's just too small for 120lb witetail doe? Thanks
