Andrew, it would get the job done but, there are better deer loads in 40S&W : https://www.surplusammo.com/products/40-s-w-180-grain-jhp-saa-gold-dot-g2-load-50-rounds-new.html

It should kill it. I've seen people kill deer with 22lr before, with proper shot placement. Like James said there's definitely better caliber's for the task but with proper shot placement it'll get the job done. Hope this helps.
