Default .243 or .308 for Antelope?

I was wanting to get some thoughts on using a .243 or a .308 on antelope. My comfort max range is 300 yrds but practice to 400 yrd. My .308 is currently ranged/setup (180 gr)for deer and elk. I would want to re-sight for a lighter round for lopes, but then have to re-sight back for deer/elk. My .243 needs a new scope, so I would have to re-sight it anyways. I'm just not sure about the .243 past 300yrds.

So which one would be the best performer for antelopes? Any thoughts or suggestions???

Thanks
