If 200 yards is the longest range you'd shoot and deer are the only target, heck, you could use almost anything...
I'd start at 24 caliber, maybe 25 caliber would be better.
Like 257 Roberts, 25-06, 6.5x55, 260 Rem, 270,7x57,7mm-08, 280, 308....the list is gonna be nearly endless.
You don't need a magnum for the kind of deer hunting you're doing.
