Baylian, on behalf of another Utahn, welcome to HuntChat.
There's nothing wrong with any of the guns you mention. Nor the .270, if it rings your bell. Thank goodness we HAVE the choice - considering that with Winchester gone, we have one fewer.
All guns today are of excellent quality. Pick the one that feels best, add a thick recoil pad and you'll be happy. Your hunting clothes will bulk up a bit, also.
Don't forget to get the best scope you can afford. Good optics can help a mediocre rifle shoot well, but no rifle can help if the scope is junk.
