Half of what load? There are a wide range of loads use on deer that work well. From 70 grains of powder to 140 or 150 grains of powder. 70 grains with a 400 grain conical will do the job 140 grains of powder with the Lehigh Shock Wave or FTX will do the job. The powder load must relate to the bullet to produce the energy to do the job.
