Lack of Recoil or Muzzle Rise ?

---

Yes, the muzzle rise, or lack of it. It appears the bullet is still in the barrel. Notice the shooter is being pushed back already. This rifle will usually end at between 30 and 45 degrees, depending on the shooter.

A bit of luck with this pick eh?

This is a Black Powder load and the orange is actually flame from the burning powder.
