17hmr if the range is around that 100-150 yds window. or in heavy cover, willows and such.
tiny frangible bullet would prevent re-crochet. great in areas of tighter human population. quieter report often allows for second shot. lower initial input cost. virtually no entrance and rarely an exit. tune it up all summer on gophers, crows, magpies etc
25-06 with 75 gr would be next. big game legal, long legs. higher resale ability because it would apply to varmiters and BG hunters alike. readily available ammo.

How does that .17 hmr put em down? I bought the .17 wsm and am waiting until the furs are prime to find out.
