[QUOTE="trader388, post: 54928, member: 2114"] lets take an example... 7mm mag: gun weight - 8.5lbs bullet weight - 150gr powder - 75gr of XYZ muzzle velocity - 3100fps barrel length - 24" The above produces 19.2 ft-lbs of recoil. NOW! Change only the barrel length to 30" and figure you gain another 300fps to 3400!! (and just figure the extra 6" of barrel didn't add any weight to the gun) Do we have more recoil due to the gain velocity from the longer barrel? [/QUOTE]
