I have owned 2 700 KS's in 7mm Remington and one 280 KS. I noticed no difference in recoil whatsoever between any of them . I got 2850+ with a 160 grain partition in the 280, I never handloaded the 7 Mags or chronographed them. It was sure a lot easier finding factory ammo for the 7 mag. The only factory ammo I bought for the 280 was Federal Trophy Bonded 140 grain which shot terribly thus the handloading.
