A .44 magnum carbine would be fine for deer, and probably black bear as well. Look at .357 magnum ballistics from a carbine. I shot one that was giving 1900+ fps from a 16" Rossi with 140 grain Hornady XTPs. That is getting very close to a .30-30, and probably good to 125 yards. A .44 magnum is more than adequate inside of 75 yards.
