      There's a couple different things being conflated here, like "strength" in and of itself isn't what keeps you from being knocked over by recoil, muscles have to have something to push against in order to exert strength

      Hollywood greatly exaggerates the amount of force firearms impart, like it's not actually possible for even a high power bullet to knock a human being across the room, or for that matter for a human being to be knocked across the room by recoil

      Most of the stuff you see about people flying to the ground when firing a gun is them losing their *balance* because they weren't braced properly and because they have their own psychological flinch reaction to the gun going off

      If you hear the clichéd advice "Squeeze the trigger, don't 'pull' it" that's what it means People ironically overcompensate for the recoil they expect by pulling the whole gun backwards when they pull the trigger (causing their aim to fly upward)

      When they should be trying to keep their hands and the rest of their body still (hence "squeezing" the gun)

      Anyway small women do pretty successfully hunt with rifles but they also do win target competitions with pistol shooting So it's mostly a matter of training

      It has to do a lot with the round you fire as well as the gun too, like they usually recommend beginning target shooting with a .22 rimfire, which has a lot less kinetic energy than a higher powered round (but will still kill an unarmored human if it hits your vitals)

      I'm generally told .22 is a perfectly serviceable round for hunting and reasonable self-defense.

      Size of weapon, caliber of bullet, length of barrel, material (metal vs polymer, wood vs metal vs poly/etc stock for rifles/shot) all a factor. There are pistols built specifically for rifle/shotgun caliber rounds other than the Desert Eagle - in theory large rounds in handgun..

      One of the things about automatic vs manual actions is that hunters look down on the use of autoloaders because of recoil The recoil in a manual action is "simple", the bullet goes forward and the recoil goes back, depending on how you hold the rifle

      Replying to @arthur_affect @the_moviebob and

      The whole point of an autoloading action is there's a mechanism harnessing the recoil (and/or the gas explosion) to chamber the next round And you feel that mechanism jerking the rifle around in weird ways as it does so
