[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1218063, member: 1521"] Equal and opposite reaction. The force that propels a 200gr bullet to 2950fps, also pushes the rifle back at you. Add 20gr of unburned powder slug to that, and you now have 220gr accelerating 0 to 2950fps in front of your shoulder. A blank, any powder or pressure, produces little to no recoil, even while there is still energy to cycle gas operation. Recoil operation, won't work with blanks -because there is little to no recoil. There are muzzle jumps but not actual recoil. Bolt thrust itself is irrelevant to actual recoil. Pressure itself is irrelevant to actual recoil. Newton did not need to include these factors. [/QUOTE]
