get the heavier version. More fun to shoot, and your scope will stay on zero longer.
This should not be a factor w/ a quality scope set up in in the proper rings/mount that's correctly installed. My heaviest recoiling handgun shoots a 220 gr, 0.375 caliber bullet at 2400 fps. The handgun weighs 5.5#. The scope has stayed zeroed for years.

I have the t3 lite in 7mm mag left handed. Have a meopta mounted up top been zeroed in for 3 years.
I think I’m about to upgrade my stock to that new Boyd’s at one stock tho. Gun kicks like a damn mule.

With a shotgun, you get a pattern. If you flinch a bit, no problem. Different world with a rifle.
OP, ask if you can shoot the rifle. It’ll be a lot of recoil.

Everyone is different, but I used to personally be extremely recoil sensitive until I was 20 or so. I was horrible as a kid and all I shot was a .243.
I've since grown out of it. My point is simply that imo recoil either bothers you or it doesn't, caliber does not make a huge difference once you get to something like .270 plus. I shoot now and my shoulder gets sore before it bothers me. Especially when hunting, if you are thinking about recoil when hunting you have a pretty major issue and really shouldn't be shooting anything close to a .300 win mag. I definitely agree that some rifles and some calibers are worse then others, but imo recoil usually either bothers you or it doesn't.

I bought the 308 2 years ago and I love it. Best shooting gun I've ever owned.
