It's the literal truth. The AR15 is a semi-automatic rifle chambered in .223. It's LESS powerful than ALL the normal deer calibers. And deer rifles can be bought semi-automatic too .. or lever action.

The most popular rifle calibers used for deer are variants of the rifles used in WWI and WWII. The AR15 is popular because the Army switched to a lighter weight rifle and ammo in the 1960's. So a generation or two of soldiers got experience firing a light weight rifle not considered powerful enough to use for deer.
