Does the WSM not allow the use of a smaller receiver?  If so, the rifle could be shorter and lighter.
As to comparing the two cartridges, even my thoughts are out dated, isn't there a significantly larger choice of bullets in 7mm?

Don't think you could go wrong with either. That being said I have the 270WSM.
