    So if what you say is correct then recoil would increase at a linear rate with projectile weight if the powder charge stayed the same. However taking what Tussock has said about the different 'reactions', if the pressure/ heat/ vibration also increases then the recoil thrust may not actually increase as much as might be expected because the energy loss also increases ….
    Can we have our cake and eat it too - a low recoiling but high performance superlight mountain rifle ??
