A whole bunch of things come into play with felt recoil. Things such as total weight, stock configuration, powder charge, bullet weight, etc. can affect it. The same factory loading shot in two different guns can quite often feel very different. Other things, such as the shooter's ability to handle recoil and their own physical structure play a part in this too, as well as the amount of serious shooting they have done, and the style they use off the bench. If you can't crawl into a gun comfortably, and have to be in an uncomfortable position to shoot, I'll guarantee you are gonna get belted.
