Perhaps you could reconcile "less recoil and more power" with common physics. Seems an oxymoronic statement. Look at the definitions of momentum, impulse and power.

Perhaps his .300WSM has significantly more mass than his AKM. That'd mean that more energy would be required to overcome the rifle's inertia and push back into his shoulder.
