The Bloke continues his comparative shooteristing with the Best in Breeds of the Lee-Enfield and the Mauser 98 series of rifles. In this brief episode, a comparison of recoil using WW2-era service-spec ammunition: .303 Mk.7-equivalent, and 7.92x57mm sS ball ammo.
Unsurprisingly, the Mauser hurts more…
He explains how this can be so!

Switzerland’s most popular native-English-language guns & shooting channel! Probably. Maybe. I guess. A somewhat off-the-wall and tongue-in-cheek look at firearms, military history and shooting, and a jolly good tilt at the windmills of fuddlore to go with it. And the odd off-topic vid about Switzerland, or whatever happens to take our fancy. We normally launch “in-series” vids on a Friday (early launch on a Wednesday via Patreon and the FB page https://www.facebook.com/Blokeontherange/ ), out-of-series vids launch precisely… whenever.
