Default Recoil differnce from .30 06 and .300 WSM

I have a tikka T3 lite in 300 wsm with a burris fullfield II and the gun weighs right about 8 pounds.I put a limbsaver recoil pad on it to help with recoil and it helped but its still pretty heavy recoil and ill admit it im flinching and not shooting it well. On top of that its hard to practice much with the cost of ammo soI thinkI want to get a .3006 instead. How much less recoil would an 06 have over the 300. I would get the same tikka t3 as i love the rifle and use the same scope so it would weight the same and use the limbsaver recoil pad.

also is there much differnce in recoil in the .270 and .3006?
