I would agree with the above posts, the 270 would do you fine and you would be happy with it. But another excellent choice would be the 25-06...for a main deer rifle this would be my choice. As for the scope I would go with a Leupold FXIII 6x42 or the FXII 6x32, they are simple bright and fail proof.
