For just deer hunting, I agree with mathman on this one. The pros to having a 6.5 creedmoor outweigh having a 7mm08. If you were stepping up to elk hunting, I'd be more tempted to get the 7mm08. But you state specifically "for deer hunting". Unless you handload, and you have a stockpile of 7mm bullets. I see no advantage of the 7mm08 over the 6.5 creedmoor if you do not handload your own.
