6.5x55 and 7-08 .
However the "small guy" may be very significant.If the stock does not fit you properly then any recoil will be accentuated !! It may be much better if you have a 'youth stock ' with shorter length of pull .Or you could cut one to size . Work on that first ,that's more important than fancy buttpads.
