The force of recoil is determined by four factors: muzzle velocity, bullet weight, weight of the propellant charge, and firearm weight. Reduce any of the first three, and recoil will decrease proportionately. Increase firearm weight, and you’ll get the same outcome.

This reduced recoil 9mm cartridge by Blazer of Idaho? It has an unusually light bullet: a mere 100 grains. Its muzzle velocity would be normal if its bullet weighed 115 grains, but 1,130 fps (which is just barely supersonic) is relatively low for a 100-grainer.

Blazer doesn’t make gimmick ammo. They make quality ammo using reloadable brass cases, some of the trustiest primers in the world, and perfectly steel-free full metal jacket projectiles that won’t attract a magnet.
