I vote, yes it should be able to cut .2" deep with a 3/4" endmill. I will qualify that statement by saying that a solid carbide endmill may want to scream a bit when its brand new, if the edges are really keen. A tad too much clearance is responsible, but usually after a break in period this noise will diminish.
An inserted tooth endmill, with typical honed inserts should behave itself right from the beginning.
