Generally speaking, I find the size and cost difference between 10 and 12 to be so small that I run the larger gauge. Doesn't sound like you'll be pulling more than 20A but it's going to be continuous, and that power loss is all going to be heat. 3% of 300w is just under 10w... that wire might get a little warm on longer drives.
