Does recoil amount and velocity affect muzzle velocity?

[QUOTE="catamountsierra, post: 1272545, member: 79865"] I am quite certain that it would change the muzzle velocity; the basic physics says that it should. My question, for those who have a better chrono and more time than I have, is this: is the difference measurable or significant enough to make a difference? When it comes down to it, we are not dealing simply with force but with impulse, or force multiplied by time. The physics would say that having a bulky jacket would reduce the muzzle velocity, but would it be a significant amount? Or would it be well within the SD or ES that we expect and therefore not measurable or significant? [/QUOTE]
