[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1802770, member: 30902"] Not quite true because the muzzle blast itself makes up about 60-70% of "felt recoil" due to the "rocket motor effect". The stock has to absorb or channel away the reining 30-40%. That's why even the most effective MB can reduce measured recoil forces by no more than about 60-70%. This is why you have to either use your body to fight recoil by absorbing it or learn to just flow with it making your body in effect a shock absorbing lever. It's also why the worst thing you can do when firing a truly punishing heavy recoiling rifle is to put your back against something solid. that's how you break bones. [/QUOTE]
