Felt Recoil

Post by pinetor on Wed Dec 21, 2011 2:58 pm

Does a Ruger Mini 14 in 223 have more felt recoil than a AR-15 in 223?

What would be the advantage/disadvantage of the old Garand system over the AR-15 system?

Whats the deal???

Used to have a Mini 14 ranch rifle, to tell ya the truth I never felt any recoil from a .223 regardless of platform. Sold it cause I shot my ARs more, never had any issues with it, just never shot it that much.

Felt recoil really depends on several things mainly weight am muzzle break... A 4lb 223 will stomp you in the dirt compared to a 16lb 308

lol I would love to see this stomp you in the ground .223. I was almost sure you could shoot it out of a deringer with little recoil.

The AR kicks less. One of it's selling points was full auto fire that is more manageable because there is no op rod contributing to the recoil. A Garand action in the rain will throw water in your face and seize when the grease is washed away. The mini is not a Garand action, just looks similar.
