You guys are right, but about the wrong thing. We are not talking about the bullet leaving the gun, we are talking about impact.

How could you expect the bullet to have more energy impacting than what was imparted at the time of firing. The bullets do the damage they do because they are small. the recoil doesnt give the same sense of the momentum imparted on the bullet because you can hold a gun firmly and dissipate the recoil easier over a larger surface area.
