I think the aforementioned .260 Rem is the perfect answer here, followed closely by the 6.5x55 Swede, .257 Roberts, 7x57 Mauser and 7mm-08. All of these rounds are about as perfect a round as can be devised for shooting deer at 300 yards or less.

Of these, the 7mm-08 probably tops the list, but it may be too much overlap with the 7mm mag.

Factory ammo for all of these rounds should be fairly easy to come by, and from more than one manufacturer. If not, a local sporting goods store will always be willing to order it for you and keep it in stock.
