You may find the 3pt conversion a little clunky to use, or you may not. Fast Hitch and 3pt are close, but not quite the same as far as lift points, lift angles, and such, so compromises must be made with the conversion. The conversion itself is usually a pair of tongs that fit into the fast hitch sockets, and have holes that slip over the 3pt pins. Sometimes the whole thing is a frame that connects to all three points, but some conversions have a separate top link. There is no "true" full 3pt conversion kit for a 300 that includes draft control, and is suitable for plowing. The full 3pt conversions on the market are meant for things like mowers, bale spears, etc, where the stress isn't all that great, and accurate depth control is not required. If you need draft control, your best bet is the fast hitch. It should work pretty well with a 3pt plow once you get things adjusted.
