    You won't by shoulder feel the difference in recoil between a 7mm08 and a .308. And at the other end the animal won't notice a difference if you park the pill in the right place...

    Biggest thing for a newer shooter is becoming used to the noise of the muzzle report - on that note, I would really recommend whichever rifle/caliber you decide to go with get it supressed.
