[QUOTE="mdk777, post: 1602493, member: 96764"] Watch super slow mo vid....there are dozens. force =mass x acceleration acceleration = change in velocity over[B] TIME[/B]. Just because there is an instantaneous force...[B]TIME[/B] is still required for mass to change position in response to that force impulse. Your recall pad on the end of your stock is not where the force of the bullet acts first. First the gas...then the gas on the barrel, then the barrel on the stock.... the bullet is gone and half way to the target ( yeah, not 1000 yards, but several) before the rubber on the pad is absorbing or distributing the force of recoil. Before the entire mass of the system is moving, the muzzle brake has also exerted its influence on the rifle system. That is why you can shot a 50 cal. If the brake did not act before the pad...it would simply not be of any use. Again, you need not take my word for it ....there are dozens and dozens of very high frame vid that you can consult now. PS...reminds me of the debate that race horse people used to have. Millions of people watched horses run and yet there was considerable debate if all four feet were in the air at the same time. High speed photography put an end to all the debate. Opinion and theory didn't matter, it was obvious from the still frames what happened (Yes, at full speed, a race horse did get all feet in the air bt. strides) pss [MEDIA=vimeo]140843358[/MEDIA] watch at about 19 sec. absolutely no movement of the stock at the moment the bullet and gas are leaving the barrel. recoil and visible movement of stock and absorption of that shock wave at the shoulder several seconds latter (in this high speed vid) [/QUOTE]
