Since I started this thread I guess I should reply.
So the shift in impact might be any number of things and I don’t really have a way to figure out which one or combination. Ok sounds good. I hoped it meant this bullet was going faster, but that’s what chronographs are for.
What constitutes a controlled environment? There is no way to control everything going on around an experiment.
If the bullet is moving forward, the gun is moving backwards. How fast and how far require measurements and math. The measurements only need to be as precise as necessary to answer the question.
The question is does recoil affect a bullets path. That is a yes/no question. The answer from both the video and generally known physics laws is yes.
If the question is how much does recoil affect bullet path, that requires a lot more rigorous experimenting and/or some pretty involved calculation.
