Default RE: .308 vs. 300 WSM for Girlfriend?

I was wanting to stick with a short action. Ya know "smaller bullets, less kick" its a mental thing for her. From what I'm hearing is that the 300 WSM does have more recoil than a .308. I don't want to go with the Reduced Recoil loads because they also reduce the performance. I like the wide range of bullet selection in the .308. Was mainly wondering how much a 300 WSM kicks. I don't want to have to have the extra cost of a muzzle brake.
