Ive done with with the .223, 6.5Grendel, 7.62x39, and the .458 Socom.
Tho I didnt use the .223 or x39 in an AR, one was a bolt gun, the other an SKS.
The .223 is plenty when used correctly, and with 55-60gr soft point, and the heavier target bullets kills can be surprisingly quick, BUT I prefer to uses 64-70gr soft points for most of my hunting, the 65gr sierra sgks, and the 70gr speer semi spitzers were my favorites.
I think the Grendel is the best "general purpose" option of the bunch
The x39 is effective at the ranges your considering.
The .458 is more than enough for any deer that walks imo. I punched a 405gr remington soft point clean thru an 800lb feral bull on a shoulder shot with mine.
Of the lot id choose the Grendel, just because its the best balanced imo.
