I'd narrow it down to .270 or .30-06
7mag is overkill IMO for deer inside 200 yards. Some here will tell you otherwise. I don't think the increase in recoil and ammo cost is worth it. If there's a chance you'll ever go elk hunting then the 7mag is probably worth it, but the .30-06 is more than adequate for elk.
.270 and .30-06 are the kings of the deer woods in Louisiana.
