Okay, comparing guitar skill is kind of difficult, as mentioned above, so I don't want to comment on it.
However, when it comes to vocals I think I can prove Mustaine is infact better.
Metallica: Vocals:
Kill 'Em All (1983)----------------Great
Ride the Lightning (1984)--------Great
Master of Puppets (1986)--------Great
...And Justice for All (1988)-----Great
Metallica (1991)------------------Great
Load (1996) ----------------------Okay
ReLoad (1997)--------------------Lame

Megadeth:--------------------------------- Vocals:
1985 Killing Is My Business...---------------Good
1986 Peace Sells... But Who's Buying?-----Very good
1988 So Far, So Good... So What!----------Good
1990 Rust In Peace---------------------------Great
1992 Countdown to Extinction---------------Good

1997 Cryptic Writings------------------------Good
2001 The World Needs a Hero--------------Good
