Default NEF rifle choice

hey guys, long time no see.
but down to buisness, im looking into getting a NEF either .22 hornet, .223, or .243 rifle to use as a kind of "mess around rifle" or just something to carry when im out in the field. The possible targets would be squirrels (headshots), raccoons, the occasional possum, if im lucky a coyote or bobcat every once in a long time. one of the only reasons for the .243 beign thrown in there was bc my little brother is 8 years old (abeit a mature one, physically) and i was potentially thinking that if it came down to it and we decided to let him take a deer her could try with that because i doubt he would be able to handle me 7mm, 30-06, or dad's .270, but thats just a side thought.
so yeah, if it makes a difference it would definately become scoped and definately not a bull barrel model.
-Thanks in advance! Im glad to be part of the community again, ive been gone for a few years.
