[QUOTE="Eaglet, post: 92979, member: 3756"] Bill Bailey, It shocks me too; I had never thought that the way you hold the rifle has anything to do with MV. Thinking about it, I read some place that most of the velocities given for factory ammo. is higher than what most of us chronograph due to the fact that factory folks use some kind of a rest and not human shoulders. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Don’t know how true that is. I would like to think that some of that internal energy is used to push the rifle backwards and if there is no resistance from a firm shoulder then the bullet will loose speed because of the sharing of energy which is, as we all know, what pushes the bullet out. But, in my mind, the other scenario is… it doesn’t matter how much the rifle recoils, or resistance to recoil it has, the internal pressures would still be there unless that bullet comes out; by the rifle free recoiling or not does not, in my mind, relief the internal pressures inside the chamber, so it should not affect it at all. Never the less, something tells me I’m not seeing the whole picture! Anyone else cares to comment on this? Thanks… Good posts! Javier Moncada. [/QUOTE]
