How much recoil I rifleman can take before he loses his ability to shoot straight. I remember when I looked at 3 empty boxes of 30/06 and couldn't believe I made it that far. 60rds of 180gr threw a Model 70 was about all I could take before I started to twitch and yank when I pulled the trigger.
I put about 100rds threw an M1A a few weeks ago and I knew My accuracy wasn't going to hold up much longer. I think the recoil difference between an M1A and an FAL is considerable. I think I could blast away with aimed fire all day with a FAL. An M1A or M1 garand.....I don't think so. I don't think I could fire more than 200rds threw a M1A before My shooting ability corroded. I doubt I would last more than a 100rds after slapping a bandolier in an M1 Garand before My trigger control fell apart.
I could shoot an AR15 all day and never lose control.
How come we never talk about this????
Forget about what bullet does more damage. Your going to have a higher hit ratio if you can control what your shooting.
