JoeBob,Are your 270 and 30-06 the same rifles? For example ,Remington 700 same style,same material stock ? Same weight,same recoil pad ?
Are you comparing a 130 Grain 270 Winchester to a 150 Grain 30-06 Or are you comparing a 150 grain 270 winchester to a 150 Grain 30-06?
No, I've never had the luxury of having two rifles EXACTLY alike but in different calibers. But every .270 I've ever had kicked more and was MUCH louder than any 30-06 I've ever had.
I don't notice a 30-06 kicking much at all until you get up to hot 180 grain hand loads. For me, from .243 to 30-06 150s it is all pretty much the same, EXCEPT for the .270s I have owned. Probably more to do with noise than anything else.
