The extract is supposedly from the official report, does anyone know if that's true ? The site referenced is a guy in Switzerland.

RK has an interesting point about bullet weight. When we come to the operation of a recoil based system, which side of the weight x velocity equation is more significant ? I could see that a heavier bullet might also be in the barrel a fraction longer, so increasing the duration of the impulse, hence total energy transfer ?
