All good advice, but having been there and done that, I would really opt for a 308 style/capacity case, like the 243, 260, 6.5x55 or the 7x08. Of course, the old 7x57 is there also.
I like the 260 and 6.5x55 best of the choices but that is just my preference, based on the cartridges being versitile as varmit cartridges or deer cartridges and well known for accuracy.
