The other side of this is that everything that goes down the barrel produces recoil, including the powder.
So not only do you get near about the same stats, you do get less R. 
The 308 based cartridges are all very fine rounds, from the 22/243 to the 358.
I just happen to think the .264 version is the best, but I am just a 6.5 nutt.
