Valid points from Roy

300mm has a closer minimum focus distance ( assuming your talking about the IS version).
If you talking about the non-IS version beware some parts such as AF unit are no longer available for repair.

I use the 300mm f4 IS with and without TC. I find it very flexible as I shoot stuff at 5 or 6 feet.

The 400mm is said to be faster focusing which is better for birds in flight.
