Default 7MM-08 vs. .308 WIN

I have a hard decision to make. im looking at both the the 7mm-08 and the 308. I know the 7mm-08 is .284 diameter bullet,smaller ammo variety, shoots real flat,quicker than the 308, and less recoil(dont care bout recoil, just want a good shooting round). Some iffy things i wonder about is smaller wound chamber and knockdown power

the 308 has more variety, and heavier bullets

My main questions are: Knockdown capabilty, best factory loads, and overall opinions on these rounds Please help me out all you can ive shot a 30-06with 150gr corelockts all my life and its proven again and againbut i just want to try something different-- i will be hunting deer,mostly under 100 yards, and in not too heavy brush
