If money is no problem, buy both, considering your plan to be a big-gun contester.

I have the 600-Hz and 300-Hz filters in my Eagle.
In my Omni-VI Plus I had 500-Hz and 250-Hz filters in each of the two IFs.

Being primarily a CW operator, it's hard to beat this combination.

I am learning the Code and will soon try CW mode.   I shall commence
with casual contacts, but eventually want to work CW contests with the
big boys at the contest station, with whom I now work phone contacts.

I have a stock Omni VII transceiver.

                QUERY:

                Should I buy either or both additional 500 Hz and
                or the 300 Hz mechanical filters?


Money is not a big object, but I don't wanna spend more than I must, as
that leaves me to buy other goodies for the shack.

Thank you in advance.
