    ORIGINAL: 1SHOT_1KILL

    I shoot a Savage 10ML-II, with smokeless powder and with 300gr XTP's.It has the recoil of a .270 Win or a .308 Win in a 7.5# rifle, even when pushing those 300gr XTPs out the muzzle at 2,200 FPS. The Savage 10ML-II is a very, very soft shooting muzzleloader.
    I would expect this,since the weight of a powder chargeadds to the weight of the projectile when calculating recoil, and the contribution of the powder is much greater becuse the powder gases reach much higher velocities than does the bullet. The powder charge of smokeless is much lighter than the heavy charges of BP or substitutes....

    I shoot 150 grains of powder with a 240 grain bullet, the recoil isnt that bad and I have a light muzzle loader.
