I know that you gave a range of calibers but I can't imagine that no one has suggested a good old 30-06 bolt gun. you can load or purchase from a 110 grain to a 280 grain or larger in some cases and have a single rifle that is able to go from varmits to big game with a couple clicks on the scope. just my thoughts but I have had an 06 all my life and though I do own many other calibers I seem to always reach for that 06 when I am going hunting anything bigger than a coyote.
