The first step to getting a hunting license would be attending a hunter safety course and getting the graduation card. I'm pretty sure it's mandantory in Delaware as with most (all?) states. You can gain information during the class as to hunting resources in the state which will suit your needs.
Also, the .308 is illegal to hunt deer with in Delaware and has been for decades. You'll need to go with a shotgun, blackpowder or bow for deer. I'm not sure about rifles for hunting varmints, etc but that would be covered in the game laws booklet (probably also available on-line).
