[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 1487307, member: 7157"] This is a subjective question, and you'll get subjective answers :) You'd have to standardize the shooting platform (i.e., same rifle chambered for these two cartridges) to gauge more "objectively" the differences in recoil. Otherwise, you'll get responses ranging from "MUCH softer" to "it's the other way around." For example, I've shot a M1 Garand and a lightweight .308 bolt action (I forget the make/model) back to back, and I'd give the heavier semi-auto M1 a slight edge over that particular BA rifle for extended shooting sessions. Now if it had been my Springfield M1903A3, I'd take the .308 BA any day for easier shooting. What rifle were you shooting that was chambered for 30-06? [/QUOTE]
