Not here to recommend anything. But just to say that I use 3 deer rifles;
My first was a Marlin in 35 Rem. Next I found a Revelation bolt action in 30-30 (made by Savage, a store brand for Western Auto.) And then I have a Rem. 700 in .35 Whelan. As I reload I can adjust according what/where i hunt. I like to use all, but when I get serious, I grab the Whelan.
