[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2881105, member: 1521"] I think if you used the right powder (not the same powder) for different bullet weights, to get same load pressure, the recoil differences would follow bullet weight more closely. I also think that increasing shoulder angle, and again comparing with appropriate loads for same pressure, both would exhibit lower recoil. Both situations would reduce the amount & duration of unburned powder in the bore. Then you have barrels which are obviously too short to burn the charge INSIDE the bore, increasing muzzle pressure. Big fireball and never really fun to shoot.. [/QUOTE]
