Welcome to HC Deerhunter06. Well, with such a broad question there are many possibilities for you. I'll keep it short and simple, bolt action, 30-06, scoped. There are many fine rifles out there today and a lot depends on what you plan on spending. Get a solid rifle, say a Rem 700, and get the most glass you can afford for it, say a Leopold 3-9x40. Caliber? 30-06 turned 100 this year and is a great caliber or it wouldn't have made it so long and be recognized around the world. Lots of other calibers good for whitetail, 270 is another great one. I wouldn't go any smaller on caliber, that combination will fill the freezer for you if you do your part, Waidmannsheil, Dom.
