Mutlicam or Kryptek Highlander Cerakote for my new 300 win mag pig hunting AR ?

I just used part of my recent tax return to purchase my dream hunting AR in 300 win mag. Although it will primarily be a hog slayer, I have some visions of grandeur where it would be used on my bucket list hunts (moose, bear, etc). I sent it out to get cerakoted, and i'm torn betweem either getting multicam or Kryptek Highlander. I have until the end of next week to decide. Multicam was selected by a branch of our military, however I have heard alot of good stuff about Kryptek. Does either pattern offer an advantage in the woods? Does on pattern over the other offer a better resale value if I decide to sell my rifle years from now? Any feedback and advice is greatly appreciated.

I've included 2 pictures of multicam and 1 of the kryptek to give you an idea of what I was thinking about.

kryptek is way cooler and a 300 mag AR deserves to be cool.

I agree the kryptek looks cool. I'm more worried about functionality. Does one offer an advantage over another? Maybe I'm just over thinking this.

True - neither about the size of the cartridge that killed them, nor about the cerakoted camo-color of the rifle the hunter used, ... nor that the hunter thought his choice of camo was super neato cool.

Yep, dead pigs are pretty much ... dead.
