[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2287956, member: 115658"] Here is the math formula: [URL unfurl="true"]https://saami.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/GunRecoilFormulae.pdf[/URL] Factors like rifle weight, bullet weight, powder charge weight, & velocity affect recoil. The end result being F.R.E. = 1/2MV**2. The 32.17 is the acceleration in feet per second per second of a falling object. This is divided into the weight of the rifle to get M, the physics guys refer to this value as "slugs". I am at a total loss of how this calculation runs out with a brake screwed onto a muzzle and the same load fired thru the barrel. Need to know. [/QUOTE]
