larger FOV is because of the lower power. the distances you said that you might be shooting would make me consider larger and more power not the opposite. if I were buying a new scope for my deer rifle, that I use on large plots or fields a 2x7 33mm would not even be in the discussion. neither would be a 3x9 40mm. get a 2.5x10 50mm and never look back.

Meh

Get good binoculars if you need to be able to count points or guess spread at long range.

The military guys shoot silhouettes at 600 with iron sights. If you can drop one in the pump house of a deer at 300 yards, 7x or 10x won't matter.
