[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 522955, member: 10291"] I buy that you have two types of recoil as has been discussed, the primary recoil that occurs while the bullet is in the barrel can effect impact of the bullet depending on whether this energy causes movement of the barrel whether it's harmonics or recoil. For practical purposes who cares. I think we are trying to shoot more accurately in the end. Bench rest guys shooting sub half inch groups at 300 yards know this quite well. They deal with it with light recoil calibers, very heavy rifle mass, and very sophisticated rifle rests complete with talcom powder on the contact surfaces to make sure the rifle moves back at firing as perfectly straight as possible with no body contact with the rifle except for the 2 oz trigger. If the bullet was gone before ignition they would have found this out long ago and saved a ton of money. The primary movement may not be noticed in many cases because other factors overcome the effect. Your talking thousandths of an inch that can't be seen in ithe videos shown in previous posts.....you could likely see it with slow speed photography at magnification. [/QUOTE]
