    223 222 22-250 etc. is great on deer for an experienced hunter who can put the bullet exactly where it needs to go and doesn't get too excited and take less-than-ideal shots I know a guy whose main hunting rifle is a 204 Ruger 40gn bullets
    he's shot all but one species of deer in NZ with it as with everything you just got to put it in the right spot

    On private land? I’m assuming 204 calibre is illegal on DOC administered land?

    yes, will have mainly been private land knowing this Falla.... not sure about the rules there as I've never hunted doc land, I know you're not allowed rimfires (in most cases)
