Default 7mm-08 vs. 25-06

I know this is probably a moot point but I' d like to hear opinions. I' m considering a new rifle. I' ve decided on a Tikka rifle but can' t decide on the caliber. I already own a 270 and a .308 Win. I' m considering a 7mm-08 or 25-06...I want a flat shooter that' s versatile. Could possibly become my wife' s deer gun if I can ever talk her into it. I' ve looked at the ballistics on these two and they seem very similar...any advantages over the other. 7mm-08 has more available factory loads so I' m leaning towards it at this point. Thoughts on these two calibers? Thanks!
