I will put those calibers in order that you gave in your post!
However, the lever gun in the 30-30 is much lighter verses the other centerfire rifle calibers, which are usually in a 8.5 pound rifle sporting a rifle scope. This conditions results in more felt recoil than one would be lead to believe.
1.*** 30-30 recoil using a 170 grn bullet. 11lbs recoil @ 2200fps
2.** 270 Winchester with factory 130 grain bullet = 17 lbs @ 3100fps
3.** 308 with factory 150 grain bullet = 17lbs recoil @ 2800fps
4.** 30-06 with factory 150 grain bullet = 20lbs recoil @ 3000fps
5.** 7mm magnum with factory 150 grain bullet = 24lbs recoil @ 3000fps
6.** 300 Win magnum with factory 180 grain bullet = 28lbs recoil @ 2950.
7.** 338 Win magnum with factory 225 grain bullet = 35lbs recoil @ 2850fps.
