One of the biggest selling points of the 270 over the 30-06 is the reduced recoil. Will a 30-06 loaded with 130g or 140g bullets have approximately equal felt-recoil as the 270 with same bullet weights?
I'm asking because my son is shying away from the 30-06 recoil, even with 150g bullets. I'm figuring that shifting to the 270 will be the answer, but I've never experimented with lighter bullets in the 30-06. That would be an easier switch.
Thanks,
Jeff
