[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 441478, member: 1521"] Cartridge dimensions do affect recoil. Those that keep the burn nearest the chamber produce less recoil. These are highly bottlenecked cartridges like WSM/WSSMs. Those that combine and send a slug of unburned powder with the bullet produce higher recoil. These are more of the 30-06 proportions(a poorly designed case). And brakes? No they do not actually reduce recoil, because most of it has been set in motion by the time the bullet is released. Brakes are after the fact. Merely a last impression of the shot.. [/QUOTE]
