All of those guns you listed are not neccesary for whitetail deer sized game at 150 yards or less, in the areas you are talking. ( thick, wooded, mountainous terrain in upstate new york) Of the choices given I would choose the .308 made by savage.
If I had my own choice for 150 yds. or less and 50-70 yds being the average, I would opt for 30-30, 45-70, 250 savage, or a nice Remington 7400/742..ect chambered in some mild cartridge such as 7-30 waters or . 257 Roberts, ( if I could find one) But to be cost effective and have avalibility of ammo at my disposal, I would choose the 30-30 hands down. Relatively cheap to shoot, and availibility of ammo is usually good.
