The  "Action" you are refering too is actually the power of the rod . Both of the rods you have listed are fast action rods.

For flipping I would go with the heavy power , fast action rod. JMHO

I would recommend the MH if you are doing basic flippin'/pitchin' and the H if you are punching mats and other heavy vegetation.  The H feels significantly heavier and significantly stiffer.  I flip and pitch a lot and I returned the H for an MH because the H felt like a broomstick.

x2 H only for punching you will want something a little softer for basic pitching.

X3  I'm buying the H either this week or next week so I will tell you how it feels if I buy one before you do.

I used the 7'3" H/XF for pitchin' into the same situations you listed.  It was good, but a tad heavy (literally, not power-wise).  This year I went with a much more balanced Kistler Helium II LTX 7'6" (Heavy action, soft tip though).

The Vendetta in H/F or MH/F... I'd probably recommend the MH/F as it'll still have plenty of backbone to pull fish out of nasty cover (mats), but the other 99% of the time it'll be better for your intended purposes (weedlines, grass, brush).
