between those 2 choices I'd probably go the 7mm-08 due to lower recoil and less powder.
I didn't think less powder and lower recoil would be a factor for you

I've seen 338. projectiles + full ammo stocked up in my LGS, but I'm not entirely sure if I could even put in a permit to acquire on that one.
