RE: Deer Gun Selection help>>>
If the muzzleloader will give you more time in the woods by extending the season then I would go that rout. I use the T/C Omega in .50 and love it. I have taken deer out to 150 yards. Other wise for the shots that you described why not just stick with the old lever action 30.30 or .35 rem. Both are reliable out to at least 100yrds and the price for the rifle and the ammo is pretty cheap. If you are stuck on the calibers that you listed all are good rounds for deer. I suggest going to a range and shooting each to find the one you are most comfortable with.
