Come on now. It's physics, not magic. Two guns of the same weight and shape, pushing the same weight bullet at the same velocity will recoil the same. No matter what the cartridge.
It's physics yes but it's a little more complex than that. Powder charge is a variable in the equation. Even if the velocity of the bullet is the same, the explosion and therefore the equal but opposite reaction may not be.
