I've owned .308 (a Remington 700) and a couple of .300 Savages (99R and 99F). The .308 and the 99R are gone on down the road, the 99F goes to deer camp with me every year. If there's any meaningful difference in a .308 and a .300 Savage, I'm at a loss as to what it might be. The 99F favors 150 grain point flat base bullets or 180 grain round nose flat base. Either one kills anything I'm ever likely to hunt "dead right there" if I do my part.
All of this is a long-winded way of saying leave it as a .300.
