    Surprised nobody mentioned the 30-30 yet. An even better choice would be the 35 Rem . Not much recoil and excellent for deer and moose with the 200gr bullet.

    .30-30 is my go to for deer, with .44mag in the backup spot as I have a huge love of lever actions. 35 Rem is a great caliber “if” you can find ammo. To meet the “ammo available easily” criteria, .30-30 gets the nod.

    7RM can easily be downloaded to 7-08 specs e.g.a 140 gr bullet at 2700 fps, so unless you want a new gun, it likely is all you'll ever need.
    The 375 Ruger was improved the day it was necked down to 9.3 mm
