Default New Rifle

Alrightt, so I'm buying a new rifle! I hunt private land in PA. Our biggest game animal is the elk, but with 60-some tags drawn a year, I doubt I'll be doing a lot of that.....
So I need a rifle that will take mostly whitetail cleanly, but also the occasional black bear. I'm thinking either a .270 Win, 30-30, or .30-06. I have a .308 but it's a 760 Gamemaster from the '60s. I've got the "bug" to get something new and impressive. Ideas?

EDIT: Price is a pretty big issue. Maybe under $800? $900 max.
