Default 25-06 vs 300 win mag

I have been hunting with the 25-06 for 12 seasons.
I would like to try next year with the 300 win mag.
Is this too much of a jump in caliber size?
I realize there will be more knock down power
and must be more careful with shot placement in order
not to destroy any meat.
I will keep the 25-06 for antelope...it's too great of a gun to
get rid of.
I'm not sure if I need two deer rifles but eventually I will get a Elk tag
and the 300 should be just right for that.
So if anyone has hunted with both, I would like to hear the pro's and con's
of the two in comparison.

Thanks
