The G7 is an OK camera, I had one, but compared to the G80 it takes a distant second place. The G80 does not suffer the shutter shock of the G7. The G80 is much sturdier and weathersealed. A secondhand G80 should be possible within your budget. The 100-300mm lens is fine, make sure its Aperture is f5.6 at full zoom and not the first model’s f5.8.
