    Moa Hunter liked post by Tui4Me On thread : suppressor pressure
    My guess has been that the marks are because the air in the barrel and suppressor in front of the bullet can’t escape as quickly as it can when using no suppression or a muzzle break. Are you...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Marty Henry On thread : suppressor pressure
    The pressure is retained for longer with the supressor think of it as a bleed off valve. To work effectively it has to reduce pressure by controlling expansion, reduce gas volume by cooling, and...

    3-15x is a great mag range that covers basically all hunting scenarios IMHO.

    Moa Hunter liked post by Puffin On thread : Seriously underrated 6.5x47 Lapua
    Recoil energy formulae typically attribute an average of 4700 ft/sec (or similar) departure speed to the mass of gas escaping behind the bullet treated as a point mass of the same weight as the...

    Moa Hunter liked post by Tussock On thread : Seriously underrated 6.5x47 Lapua
    Newton said for every action there would be an equal and opposite reaction. He did not specify what the reaction would be. In the case of gun powder turning into gas, stuff will move. The projectile...

    Yup. That's pretty much what a follow thru is. Watching the foresight or crosshair after the shot. If position and everything else is right, your sight picture should return to where it started. ...

    I was always taught to follow thru or dwell after the shot was broken with a rifle. Pretty sure the projectile is still in the barrel during initial recoil impulse depending on a few things. I...
