I have to agree with Otis.I find the 30-06 and 7mmremmag to recoil very similarly.I find that the heavier sendero in 7mmremmag actually recoils less than a standard weight 30-06.
Me too! A lot of how a rifle recoils is how it FEELS! This is determined by such things as stock shape, buttplate material, gun weight, etc. I had an M70 Featherweight in .308 once that was very unpleasant to shoot. Likewise a .308 Norma magnum that had a Neidner steel buttplate, which was WORSE to shoot than my old M70 Super in .375 H&H!!
