Re: Some recoil stats for discussion

Changing the powder or charge changes the velocity. That's the action that the rifle is reacting to, if you want to be all Newtonian.
The mass of the powder also contributes to the recoi
Yes
The powder has mass.
This mass is not lost as it burns and evolves gas.
Mass is a critical component of the recoil formula.
This is why Nitro for Black recipes typically give less recoil per velocity unit.
