[QUOTE="Hawk in WY, post: 2416260, member: 70947"] Muzzle brakes are effective as we all know. They are effective for the reason you state. But because the bullet seals the barrel, the bullet is ahead of those gases. The recoil of importance here is the Newton effect (equal and opposite forces) that is the source of the initial recoil. What you are describing is no less real but occurs after the bullet has left the bore and releases the following gases. I'm guessing I should not be arguing with someone with 12,669 posts. Out.
