737-800 Short(ish) field landing

A question for 737-800 pilots - if you are approaching an airport with a relatively (but not unduly) short runway (say 6500-7000ft). Would you use Flap 30 and Autobrake 3/Max or Flap 40 and Autobrake 2. What situation would you use Flap 40 and why not use it all the time?

Thanks in advance for any constructive replies.
