Re: On subject of smoothbore vs rifled felt recoil
|
I have noticed for years that there is less recoil from a rifle or smooth bore shooting ball than rifle shooting a conical bullet. Eg my enfield Pat 58 has more recoil than a .62 smoothbore both shooting service charges. The smooth bore is in fact a heavier charge.
