Chuck Hawks says that the 7mm Remington Magnum actually recoils less than the .30-06!
That's only partially true. Comparing the same bullet size, 150 grain, the .30-06 recoil is 17.6 and the 7mm Rem Mag is 19.2. I would bet that a 175 gr out of the 7mm Mag recoils more than that 180 grain out of the '06.
