Caliber choices: 30-06 or 280 rem. will do anything without the "magnum"

Scope Leupold 2.5-8x36 in Talley one piece. Nice and light,
Ple Ty of magnification and also a great low power range

Rifle: many choices. Pull up rifles and see what you like as far as stock and triggers. I have several Tikkas, Sakos, and a couple Rem 700
