Great job. Consider expanding on this test by now comparing the increase in recoil when you increase charge/velocity. For example, at what velocity does the lighter 130 equate to the recoil of the slower 140, and at that point what does the ballistics look like out to 1200 yards?

Recoil is not just bullet speed and weight. Along with those 2 factors there is the amount of gas generated and the rate the gas escapes (assuming 100% burn) after bullet exit. At that point you have a short duration rocket engine. A heavier bullet keeps the gas constrained longer and usually results in a higher pressure at the muzzle. There are existing formulas for calculating recoil, and they all take into account the weight of the propellant, and one takes into account the type of propellant.

Correct! Powder choice will make a dramatic affect on recoil as burn rates create different pressure curves and different volumes of gas given the same measured amount. While their test is good for KZitem its data is one sided, lacking all the other variables making it useless. Change your scope..you changed the recoil felt, the list is endless of what affects the end result here.

More of a push than a sharp jab. Took some friends out shooting water jugs with a 45/70 with several boxes of shells. A few different 300gr, 325 and 405. Most thought the 405 was like a 4-10 shot push and more comfortable than the 325. I've often wondered how the difference in weight would effect the recoil. Shooting from various positions I've found myself from time to time touching one off with the butt plate on my collar bone.

I did some back of the envelope calculations dividing kinetic energy with distance travelled and got a "power index" of sorts 8.01 (120gr) 9.94 (136gr) 9.83 (140gr) 9.72 (143gr) 9.73 (146gr) 9.41 (153.5gr) Also the loads weren't comparable in terms of kinetic energy (KE=1/2*(mv^2)) (2685, 3322, 3337, 3373, 3413, 3503 Joules) These results seem a bit inconsistent with the conclusion of "heavy bullet increases recoil" I would say that the recoil is dependent purely on the kinetic energy of the bullet leaving the barrel. (newton's 3rd law and no reciprocating mass to complicate the recoil impulse) But math isn't my strong suit, please correct me if i made errors or false conclusions.

The reason that recoil goes up with heavier bullets has nothing to do with "built up energy", in fact, the maximum muzzle energy for heavier bullets, for a particular power, is less than it is for lighter bullets. The reason recoil is higher for loads with heavier bullets is due to the fact the heavier bullet has more momentum. Recoil is simply the result of conservation of momentum. The momentum of the rifle is equal to the momentum of the bullet and powder but in the opposite direction, which is what we experience as recoil. The equation for kinetic energy is 1/2*m*v^2 and the equation for momentum is m*v. If you want to double energy with velocity, you only need to increase the velocity by the square root of 2. In that case, the momentum/recoil only goes up by the square root of 2. If you want to double energy using mass you have to double the mass (which doubles the momentum/recoil). In other words, for the same muzzle energy, loads with heavier bullets will always have more recoil.

I watched this video last weekend with my dad and while it is interesting, it is not a realistic comparison because ammunition with different bullet mass (for a respective caliber) does not use the same amount of charge. While it is true that a heavier bullet will be slower and have more recoil, it is exaggerated in this test and the results won't be accurate. There is an inverse relationship between bullet mass and charge used to keep the energy (and pressure) within safe levels in the barrel. When you substitute a heavier bullet with a charge meant for a lighter bullet, you are reducing the volume in the case (to maintain overall cartridge length). If you leave the exact same amount of powder in the case with this reduced volume, the pressure must go up, most likely to a dangerous level. The outlier from the factory ammo is because all of their hand loads must be loaded with the amount of charge specified for the heaviest bullet or there would have been over-pressure problems in the lighter bullets. Either way, they were not loaded properly. If loaded to spec, I'd expect to see a weaker relationship with outliers (or nodes) that give peak velocity with corresponding anomalies in the recoil.

Pressure limits aside, using a faster powder will also reduce recoil with a bare muzzle, all other things being equal. When the bullet leaves the barrel, the crown becomes in effect a very short duration impulse rocket. Given the same bullet and velocity, a faster powder reduces pressure (and potentially ejecta mass) at the muzzle, in turn reducing its contribution to the rifle's rearward momentum. Arresting and redirecting propellant gas is how muzzle brakes work, which is why slower powder increases their effectiveness.
@renzocoppola4664

A faster powder will increase recoil due to increased bullet speed OR faster powders increase peak pressure, and lower peak pressure duration, so lower bullet speed. I couldnt tell what would happen, but most importantly it affects bullet speed that contributes the most to recoil. I would guess that a shorter barrel should get more recoil from gas.

Could also be why they didn't mention the powder charge if the heavier pills had stupid high charge weights relative to bullet weight.
@renzocoppola4664

Max loads should be more of a use case, as barrel length exacerbates recoil from heavier bullets. Heavier bullets increase the explosiveness of gunpowder (due to less case space and a bigger peak pressure). Also, you can't really isolate bullet weight as a parameter, unless a long enough barrel is used, (longer barrels are more efficient for lighter bullets).
@renzocoppola4664
Жыл бұрын
Anyway. Anything is useful for measuring momentum and energy. What's most important is how gunpowder gas affects recoil, and bullet weight affects recoil. A bunch of loads, barrel lenghts, and bullet weights should be what's useful to isolate every or almost every factor.
@renzocoppola4664
Жыл бұрын
Lighter bullets can be proppeled with more powder, because peak preassures are lower. There's more energy that would transform into recoil, and also more gas. Though it's obvious a heavier bullet would cause more recoil, that's not the debate. It's about how much would affect recoil given a standard caliber.

I think that running this test with a charge per bullet that gives the same pressure would be much more interesting as if I were to use a lighter bullet I would put more powder behind it.

That's the actual math. For a given barrel recoil is a direct function of force. Speed and weight. Like 9mm the most forcefully round is generally a 124gr and will generally be the most recoil. And 147 are generally he least energy. It holds true also, as bullet weight increases in this test so dose energy ft/lb. He didn't have a projectile that was too heavy or took up too much of the case like 147gr 9mm. 120gr=1979.64 // 136gr =2450.97 // 153.5gr= 2585.32. That didn't line up with his velocity philosophy so he mites the 120gr because it was fast but did not make the recoil more because it did not have more energy. Also recoil should be measured in ft/lb not distance too many variables like friction on that rig. He needs a compression force gauge behind the riffle
@aussieexpat

@Dylan Holbrook im wondering if it isnt as simple as measuring bullet energy. Ultimately its about PSI at the bolt face x area of the bolt face x time. Because powder burns slowly and is also propelled down the barrel, the psi at the base of the bullet might be higher than the psi at the bolt face? And friction as you said..
@dylanholbrook6239
Жыл бұрын
@@aussieexpat the psi will be same at bolt face as the projectile rear. Psi is a function of energy and volume. The higher psi will push the bullet further faster making more square inches in the barrel and less psi. Velocity is a direct result of psi. However a lighter bullet will move faster, reducing the psi faster. The difference in psi should be a very direct result of projectile energy (weight and speed). More psi = more energy. And forces having a equal and opposite reaction. The point you raise would be more about barrel length maintaining the energy for a longer period. A compression gauge is a set distance with a set resistance. The sled he made is only distance, duration, and friction. The heavier bullet is should, according my theory, cause the riffle to move further back at a slower speed of it had the same projectile energy as a lighter bullet who would move it faster for a shorter duration. Shock force vs duration of force. Shock force is what you will feel. Roller delayed vs direct blowback would be a good example.
@aussieexpat

@Dylan Holbrook what im saying is that think about the moment just before the bullet leaves the barrel. There is powder burning just behind the bullet (also traveling at the bullets speed) creating a localized higher pressure just behind the bullet. This higher pressure is supported by the velocity of the air and the pressure from the barrel sidewalls. This localized pressure may never be felt by the bolt face. This would explain discrepancies between different loads, where bullet muzzle energy doesn't translate directly into felt recoil.

@Dylan Holbrook but i also 100% agree, that humans seem to call / percieved peak force to be "recoil" rather than total rearward energy. Thisbis certainly true about injuries in a car crash. So increasing T will decrease "recoil".

These recoil tests are kind of misleading I would think. Wouldn't it make more sense to have a force meter on the buttstock up against something solid since felt recoil is measured in ft/lbs of force to the shooter? You could throw a 5.56 in the sled, show it recoiling however far back and people don't know what that actually means. Some people might misinterpret the rifle moving far back on the sled as "felt recoil" when there isn't really any recoil with said 5.56 in in ft/lbs.

Look at G7 form factor. Berger lists these. An easy example would be a 168 hybrid target vs a 185 classic hunter. The 168 had a better form factor and will fly more efficiently. On the other hand you could compare the 180 elite hunter to the 168 hybrid. The 180 elite has the better form factor this time so it will fly better. The real answer to determine which is better is probably just going to come down to which one your rifle shoots better.
