I have both lenses actually. If you plan on doing more handheld shooting. go with the 55-250 IS, I actually use that lens as my everyday walkaround. If you have a tripod / monopod, and want to shoot the kids ballgame or wildlife... the extra reach is nice on 75-300.
If i had to choose the 55-250IS would be a better all around lens though. It is just on the cusp of being usable in an average sized room.
