For some one to say that a 30-06 has a certain percentage of felt recoil, as compared to a 7-08, without taking into account all the felt recoil factors is just flat out wrong to do.
Since I am the only one that listed a percentage of recoilI will assume you are talking about my post. I will also assume that you didn't read the entire post.

And didn't get to the end of that sentence or the next.
..........assuming they are fired out of the same rifle.... IE: both shot out of a Remington 700 CDL.
