[QUOTE="lightwind, post: 523157, member: 30140"] WildRose: You still haven't got it right. It is not a closed system (as most of those replying have pointed out). Considering the barrel with the bullet moving through to be a closed system it is causing you to misinterpret the physics. The powder is doing work on the bullet. The result is force which translates to acceleration which is the same in both directions to keep a zero momentum for the system (near zero because of irreversibility in the system). The fast hot gases at the end are an important part of the recoil, but as has been pointed out multiple times before, it is only one of the two important parts of recoil. [/QUOTE]
