All things being equal, I'd much rather use a 7lb .308 than I would a 9lb .300 mag. My wrists seem to notice the difference in weight by the end of 10 hours of hunting far more than the game notices the difference in killing power. So long as my shoulder will put up with it I'd rather shave mass than add powder.
