Does recoil amount and velocity affect muzzle velocity?

[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1272510, member: 4566"] I did miss a few physics classes but I did pick up on the equal and opposite reaction stuff, if the pressure is captured in the chamber and the bullet is traveling forward then the felt recoil is the reaction to the forward motion of the bullet. If the rearward reaction varies in intensity, then the forward motion should as well unless it is proposed that the gas CUSHIONS the bullet. Even a cushion effect would still result in a varying velocity. [/QUOTE]
