It would seem this platform would do a lot of deer hunting really well. I would be equally happy with a model 70 short action CRF as the basis also. I don't own a 6.5 CM so the bullets I would mostly use would be 140 gr. partitions in the 7-08 and 150 gr. Partitions in the 308. How far off am I?

You're really close to where I'd want to be. As long as the rifle is stainless, has a synthetic stock, balances at the forward action screw, and throws Partitions from an 08-based case, the rest is pretty much academic.
