Default Scope Switcharoo

I have an old beater Weaver/redfield on my 760 30-06 and it is poor in low light. Here's what I am thinking of doing, need feedback

- move the Ziess Conquest 3x9x40 to the 30-06 from the 7-08
- put the VX-III 3x9x50 on the 7-08 from the 300 RUM
- Buy a new longer range scope for the 300 RUM. Want to shoot out 400+.

Looking at 4.5x14x50? Shooting whitetail mostly. Like to keep it under $600 if possible don’t laugh. I have seen a few nice bucks in the bean fields this year and have the 300RUM sighted in at 300 zero and would feel a bit more comfortable with a lttle more power than 3x9

Thanks for any feedback
