This would be my suggestion as well. .260 Rem, 6.5 Creedmoor, or 6.5x47 Lapua if you like spending money on ammo lol6.5 Creedmoor is a great round for deer(or elk) and the max ranges your looking at shooting are well with in its limits.
You have gato be kitten me right now. Is that thing even real?
I know I'm waaaaay late to the party, but why not just go full cowboy and go with with a .45-70?
I've got one, and I love it (Marlin 1895 GBL).
Granted, I've never shot anything besides mountains, an F-150 (it was already dead tho) and a river with it, but I like the fact that whether a deer or a triceratops charges out of the bush I'm probably covered.

You want thoughts AND opinions?? Well, I know nothing about guns but here are some thoughts and opinions:Thoughts and opinions welcomed.
That was is a Magnum Research. Not mine, just a pic. You sure wouldn't want to one hand it.You have gato be kitten me right now. Is that thing even real?
Law of Physics: "Okay, the 45-70 is impressive, but you're gonna need a pretty heavy rifle to counteract that recoil."
Humans: "Hold my beer."
I think that is the Tikka I looked at and while I would love to have it, it was more money than I wanted to spend. They also had a Bergera that was less money than the Tikka that I really liked as well. The pic at the top of this post is the Bergera.I would strongly recommend a Tikka CTR in 6.5 creedmoor with 24" barrel. I picked one up for precision long range shooting and it is an absolute tack driver. Amazing value to function ratio, far superior than what Remington is producing these days. The bolt and action is teflon coated so it's an extremely smooth action, and the trigger is one of the best triggers on the market. You can adjust it from 2-4lbs.
The following site is great to deal with, and they offer great pricing as well. https://shop.whittakerguns.com/product/ss-24842
Here's mine setup for PRS.
Bwahahahahaha, uh oh.. Looks like B is bored again... Careful what you ask for Old smokey! Now Let's see, how did we deal with it the last time he got bored..You want thoughts AND opinions?? Well, I know nothing about guns but here are some thoughts and opinions:
- When someone's dog barks at me, I think it's funny to say, "I don't speak dog," and then when they leave the room, speak dog fluently.
- I think coffee is to Mondays what Sam was to Frodo.
- Being a parent feels like being dropped into a corn maze at night. It's confusing and terrifying all at the same time.
- The better a friend is at carving a pumpkin, the more you should keep an eye on them.
- I'm white but not watch NASCAR from my couch drinking a natty light white.
- Watching NFL after college football feels like Gandalf returning as a guitarist from Poison.
- The only thing better than going to bed is going back to bed.
- The earlier today me who thought 4 cups of coffee was a good idea is right now me's sworn enemy.
- If you don't need 13 napkins when eating pizza then you're doing it wrong.
- If you want to see me at one of my happiest moments just slide a plate of chicken fingers in front of me.
- I'm simultaneously impressed and distrustful of people who love to eat leftovers.
- When I'm tempted to be critical of a pro athlete I remind myself I'm eating chips and sitting on a couch.
- Social media is the best/worst thing that's ever happened to pyramid schemes/friendships.
- Judging by how long it just took me to decide on a candy bar I'd be the first one out of the Hunger Games.

Nice.Took an old buck this morning from 266 yards with my new Ruger American Predator 6.5 CM. Perfect shoulder shot and he dropped within 20'. A lot of accuracy for less than $400.
