Plenty of options available there.
How about the MAX8640:

Tiny SC-70 package, available with 2.5V preset out (saving you parts), and
around 87% efficiency @ 300mA.
I haven't checked availability.

The Micrel MIC2205 will hit 90% @ 300mA:

How much board space do you have?
Cost an issue?
Got an efficiency target in mind?
Is the load a fairly constant 300mA?, or does it vary a lot?

Dave.
