2. Free recoil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_recoil

   The rearward energy of the firearm is the free recoil and the forward energy of the bullet is the muzzle energy. The concept of free recoil comes from the tolerability of gross recoil energy. Trying to figure the net recoil energy of a firearm (also known as felt recoil) is a futile endeavor. Even if the recoil energy loss can be calculated ...

3. .400 Cor-Bon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.400_Cor-bon

   Felt recoil is a little sharper but still very controllable. [5] Because of its relatively high velocity for a handgun round, the .400 Corbon offers a very flat trajectory, which in turn allows the firearms chambered for it more effective range. Ed Sanow also felt recoil was equivalent to 230 gr (15 g) hardball in .45 ACP. [6]

4. 20-gauge shotgun - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20-gauge_shotgun

   The 20- gauge shotgun, also known as 20 bore, is a type of smoothbore shotgun. 20-gauge shotguns have a bore diameter of .615 in (15.6 mm), while the 12-gauge has a bore diameter of .729 in (18.5 mm). [2] 12-gauge and 20-gauge shotguns are the most popular gauges in the United States. [3][4] The 20-gauge is popular among upland game hunters ...

5. Gauge (firearms) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(firearms)

   The gauge (in American English or more commonly referred to as bore in British English) of a firearm is a unit of measurement used to express the inner diameter (bore diameter) of the barrel. Gauge is determined from the weight of a solid sphere of lead that will fit the bore of the firearm and is expressed as the multiplicative inverse of the ...

6. .38 Super - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.38_Super

   The .38 Super, also known as .38 Super Auto, .38 Super Automatic, .38 Super Automatic +P (High Pressure Variant), .38 Super +P (High Pressure Variant), or 9×23mmSR, [2] is a pistol cartridge that fires a 0.356-inch-diameter (9.04 mm) bullet. It was introduced in the late 1920s as a higher pressure loading of the .38 ACP, also known as .38 Auto.

7. Power factor (shooting sports) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor_(shooting_sports)

   Power factor (PF) in practical shooting competitions refers to a ranking system used to reward cartridges with more recoil. Power factor is a measure of the momentum of the bullet (scaled product of the bullet's mass and velocity), which to some degree reflects the recoil impulse from the firearm onto the shooter (see section on limitations).

8. Ruger SR-Series - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruger_SR-Series
