I think it is likely that you have been oversold on the recoil factor of these smaller "magnums" like the 270 Weatherby Mag. More folklore than reality, unless your body is deteriorating.
Practice even the basics of recoil management andyour 270 Weatherbywill be a walk in the park.
[By "basics" I don't mean just "going out and giving her a go and see what happens" ----understand BEFORE you pull the trigger.]
