270Win is just about as much recoil as the 30-06. Not enough difference in my opinion.
A 6.5 Creedmoor is about all you could ever need on a 200 lb animal within 300 yards. If you are shooting within 200 yards, going down to a 243Win or 6.5 Grendel is all you need.
A semi auto is going to further reduce recoil so consider one of them, like an AR10 or AR15 or BAR or similar.
Another option is to hand load your 30-06 cases with 125gr spitzers and H4895… you can go as low as 32.2gr of powder. Should be able to load it to less than a full power 6.5 Creedmoor even with 40-ish grains of H4895.
