Does recoil amount and velocity affect muzzle velocity?

[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1272943, member: 4566"] I used a recoil calculator and backfed the #s basically. To balance the equation on a 10lb rifle firing a 200gr at 3k if you added 10 lbs to gun weight it essentially tallied about 25 fps. I can guarantee you I am feeding more than 10lbs of mass into a 14lb Lapua. I looked for a calculator to feed it the other way and there were 10K available and I got lost quick. Law of conservation of momentum says that MV=mv so essentially if we solve for a zero momentum solution we can figure the velocity difference on the other side. I do know that my 40lb rigs were easier to shoot LR. They don't move much lol. [/QUOTE]
