I'm going to second a good modern bolt action rifle,which should be more accurate than the mini 14 or the Remington 742.

Lots of great bolt action rifles being produced these days,take a look at maybe 243,260,7mm-08,or 308 in short action rifles.Long action I would look at 25-06,270,280,or the 30-06. All should do a very good job on deer/hogs,as well as 300 yard target shooting.
