[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 522733, member: 30902"] Don't need to look it up. I'm quite familiar with both the 90 and 105 having fired both. In both cases you are talking about a light weight, fairly portable weapons system that fires essentially a tank shell. You are right the muzzle brake is at the back end and utilizes the propellant gasses to propel the weapon forward, instead of having them come out of the front end for the opposite effect. I've also run the numbers, and the numbers tell me that with the mass of the rifle, mass of the projectile, force necessary to reach mv the reaward interial forces involved are minimum and not enough to affect accuracy; at least in the calibers we are talking about. Even with the big guns you see no significant recoil effect until the round is exiting the barrel. The recoil effect that does affect accuracy, is the human reaction to recoil. [/QUOTE]
