Bought my first centerfire in 1978, a 30.30. After I saw my first sambar sold it and bought an M70 30.06 in 1982. I still have it. Unlikely I will ever sell it. Now does light duties with 125gr...

There's no one answer for this. Expect it move enough that you will need to adjust your scope when switching. The exact amount is going to depend on a lot of things and I doubt there's any formula...
