Shepard, obviously. His shielding is more advanced, it's designed to stop projectiles moving at near FTL speeds and Master Chief's weapons fire basically modern day bullets.
Shepard also has superhuman strength from his Lazarus Project upgrades and possible access to Biotic powers to throw the Chief around with his mind.
If they were traveling that fast, a single shot would cause a mass extinction. They fire fast, but are very small. Bullets travel a bit slower, but are larger. They travel so slow in fact they might not even be registered on the kinetic barriers. If they are registered, then their larger mass would make up for their smaller size.
Consider what Chief is. A master black ops agent, genius tactician, expert hand to hand fighter, can run north of 80 KPH in suit, can punch through tank metal, can dodge bullets, and has effective energy shielding. I've yet to see evidence of Shepard gaining superhuman strength, Wrex is a brute, and Garrus is basically another human that's really good with a sniper rifle. All things the Chief has killed before they even realized they were in a fight.
