I currently have a rifle in.270win and am considering purchasing a rifle in 30-06 Springfield.
My question is if there is much recoil difference between the two.

I actually think there is a lot of difference. To mea 30-06 kicks A LOT more then a .270. I think probably about the same as my 7mm Rem Mag.

A golf course is a willful and deliberate misuse of a perfectly good rifle range.
The total weight of the gun/scope and stock style have a lots of impact on "felt recoil!" A light rifle and lighter cartridge combo can feel as hard as a larger gun/cal. combo!

Not really, just depends on the weight and type of powder charge used in the cartrige. Try firing simple soft points then move up to like an Accubond and you will see what I mean.
JB, if all things are equal (including bullet weight) a 2.5 lb. differential should not be very noticeable. A lighter weight .270 may have more felt recoil than a heavier '06.
I really can't feel much difference between my lightweight .308 compared to my heavier 7MM RM.
