[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1272581, member: 30902"] No, the rifle is pushed back by the shifting mass and ejecta from the muzzle once the bullet is gone. The latter makes up about 70" of recoil. The force is occurring inside the barrel and the bullet will exit the barrel at the same velocity as it would being held tightly. The bullet leaves the barrel at the same MV either way. Essentially this is a sealed pressure vessel and the pressure is released only when the bullet leaves the bore. Moving it doesn't and can't have any effect on MV once the primer is struck It is simply energy that is dispbursed into the air rather than into your shoulder or base of your Lead Sled. Recoil forces push away from the direction of travel of the bullet whether you have a tight hold leaning hard into the bipod or just laying your cheek up there, relaxing and pulling the trigger. The forces acting on sending that bullet don't change with that movement. [/QUOTE]
