[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1304416, member: 14204"] This calculator will allow you to compare two >>> [U][URL="http://handloads.com/calc/recoil.asp"]Recoil Calculator[/URL][/U]. Whichever has more powder (esp. when different powders are used) to achieve the velocity will generate more felt recoil. However, as Barrelnut noted, you might not be able to feel the difference. For instance, I ran the following numbers ... 300 WM 220 ELD-X RL26 = 74.4g 2850 FPS 300 WBTY 220 ELD-X Magnum = 84.3 2850 FPS ... and yielded the following free recoil energy (FT/LBS): 300 WM = 27.09 300 WBTY = 29.46 Cheers!
