Sounds like you want to strictly hunt whitetail with this rifle. If you are strictly hunting rifle then theres many calibers, and if you don't mind spending money then you can be set up nicely. A caliber that is super fast, super flat, and you will be amazed by would be the 257 Weatherby magnum. Its an incredible caliber. The bullets would be a little difficult to find and more expensive. A 270. wsm is a lot like the 257. Weatherby Magnum but bigger, a little less expensive and is more widely available. If you want something that is a normal price range, widely available then i would look at a 243. win or a 270. win. Both are fast flat and hard hitting. The 257. Weatherby beats out the 243. win in ballistics but not price and it goes for the 270. wsm and the 270. win. A 7mm rem mag, is something that would give you a performance like the wsm and weatherby without the extreme prices. The 7mm will go up in price compared to the 270. win, and 243. win though and will have some recoil but its not too bad.
Look at the Remington 700, Sako 85 or A7, Tikka T3 and Browning. All Amazing
