Default RE: Rifle for dad....

Any of the three cartridges you mentioned will do just fine. If you were to mix varmints in I'd lean towards the 243. For a strictly deer gun the 7mm 08, if you ever had plans on hunting anything bigger the 308. All three rounds can be found just about anywhere, though the 7mm not quite as common as the other two.
