GUNTALK S5: Total Recoil, Pt 3
This video demonstrates how firearm weight and ammunition load significantly impact felt recoil. By comparing a heavy rifle with light, fast ammunition (22-250) to a lighter rifle with heavy, slow ammunition (45-70), the presenters illustrate that both bullet weight and velocity, along with powder charge, are key factors in recoil. They further show that even with the same caliber (308 Winchester), different bullet weights and powder charges result in noticeable recoil differences.
