Stick to your choice of 7-08. That's one decision that you have made and its a good choice that you are feeling comfortable about. There is absolutely no reason to waver from it.
The comment about 308 being better in a short barrel is just academic rubbish. "Better" is just a subjective notion.
Now all you have to do is choose a rifle that fits you and feels good and is within your budget. And choose a scope of a reputable brand.
