Durring my morning meal I can across this little video.

I don't know if his explanation of what is going on is spot on, but watch through to the end where he makes some interesting statements on flinching.

The man is a competent gunsmith and historian, but I am more familiar with his work on unmentionables.

 
I've been dealing with the pandemic too much. My first thought was how lockdown time was going to be visualized... :doh:

It was interesting to see that delay, and the shooters flinching. It certainly helps me understand what I need to work on.

This rifle makes quite a bit of recoil. One ounce ball at 1600 fps. The other rifle a a 54 with 1900 fps MV. videos were taken several years apart. If you can't shoot a FL well you likely ain't all that great with a brass suppository guns either. But the BSG are more forgiving.

Why
 
Ya gotta love the Webley Fosbury automatic revolver as a "modern gun" don't you?
We don't talk about them things here on the forum.

The only reason I left the video in the OP is because I thought it was interesting and I wish he would have used a percussion gun instead of that suppository powered thing.
 
My coworker took slo motion with his phone showing the difference between blackpowder and substitute stuff. I no longer consider substitute as an option
