Sixpack,
I own a Featherweight in .308 Win. However, a 7MM-08 Rem would have worked just as well. If there is a possibility you might call your rifle into battery on larger game, I'd recommend the .308 Win. Also, when I venture into areas where I might run into a big, mean critter, it is comforting to carry a half-dozen bonded, heavyweight cartridges.
Either way, I think you'll be well-suited to hunt the game you have indicated.
Take care,
Mando
