Why does a heavy rifle not kick as strongly as a light rifle using the same cartidges

Answer 1

The recoil speed of the gun is inversely proportional to its mass. So, the recoil speed of the heavy gun is lesser than that of the light gun.

Answer 2

Explanation:

• But the heavy size of the gun makes the inertia of that heavy gun to absorb the recoil momentum and hence less amount of force or cake is experienced in that required.
• But in the case of a light rifle, the inertia of the rifle absorbs very little force and the rest of the force is transferred inform of the kick experienced.
