My ultralight timber stick - building a 4 lb rifle

Cody,


Foot pounds of recoil energy and recoil velocity both

Oops, just saw your post #45.
Nevermind.
That's like using Greenhill twist calc instead of JBM. It might be close, but could also be far off. You can have 2 exact muzzle energies with 2 different burn rates that give 2 different gas volumes and exit pressures. The faster burning powder with less gas volume will give less recoil. It's like having a muzzle brake to disperse/redirect gas with less felt recoil.
