For close up, 100yds or less, which where I hunt is most of the time, as well as climbing into and out of trees.........

260 or 7mm-08 both 20" bbl. and light carry guns.

For distance which up here amounts to 200-300yds, over bogs, swales, and down power lines.......

7mm-08 heavy varmint rifle 26" bbl.
 
30-06 works great.

My father told me deer hunting story of his youth. Rifle used was a 300 H&H mag. The end result was a headless deer. On that note we agreed thaT was over kill. This was hunting in eastern Washington .
