Default 270 or 308, which has less recoil?

All else being the same, will the 270 or 308 have more recoil if guns were the same and bullets were 150 gr?

Alternatively, if I dropped down on the 270 to a 100 or 130 gr bullet, would that make a big difference?

Part of why I'm asking, my daughter shoots a 243 but I wouldn't mind my new gun having versatility for a wide range of hunting but also something my daughter could shoot comfortably as an alternative to her 243. People say the 308 doesn't kick, but I think it has a bit of punch myself.
