The OP indicated .223 is out because it's not legal for deer in their state.

I do agree about Tikka T3s, though. Though I'd recommend any of the T3s, I recently bought a Tikka T3 CTR, and I'm very impressed with it. Dead nuts accurate right out of the box, good trigger, a bolt that's slicker'n snot, a 10-round detachable mag, and a muzzle that's threaded for a suppressor. I bought it for mid-range tactical precision matches, but it'd be a great hunting rifle as well.

This particular model (the CTR) is available in .308 and .260. I bought the .260, and think I'd still choose that chambering over .308 for when I stretch my legs to 1000 yards. Its a dandy deer cartridge to boot.
