You should absolutely take the rifle you are most comfortable (shoot well) with.

FWIW I didn't see anyone else mention that the .308 is a short action cartridge and can be had in a more compact rifle. Might be something to consider if you'll be hunting in heavy cover, JMO.

That vid has been around for several years ..... I can't even remember how long ago it was when I first saw it ...... I'll never forget it, though.
