I would say it performed flawlessly.
I've taken 3 deer in a sitting with that exact round and had identical results.
I now shoot 308 TAP in 110gr weight from my socom. mostly because the blind I'm hunting now also has very large hogs coming in to it and when its go time, I want to put as many down as I can, so hit'em hard. with the 308, can be less picky about my shots and take down 250lb pigs on the run. they might need a finisher, but more humane than a 223 to the back leg to let fester and rot for a week or two.
shot 2 deer last year with the 110's and when you do, you ruin at least one of the front hams, if not both.
so for meat preservation, I'd definetely recommend the TAP from a 223/556.
as always, YMMV
ETA:
based on this i would expect to have to shoot a home intruder more than once to stop them.
why? if you shot an intruder and it punched a hole thru his chest and exploded his heart, I'd think that'd be pretty sufficient. deer are a little more high strung that people....
(well, not always)
