Default Long Range Rifle

I am thinking of buying a long range rifle for hunting/shooting. I've been reading as much as i can find on this site and the long range hunting site. One of my questions is it seems all the info i've been reading is geared towards .30 caliber and bigger calibers. Would i be alright shooting something like a 270 wsm at long range. I hunt moose, deer and deer. Another question i have is there a factory production rifle that would be accurate right out of the box or should i go with custom right off the bat. I am looking to spend about $2000 for the rifle and another $1000 or a scope. I am not stuck on the 270, just not a big fan of really heavy recoil.
