What kind of force is the backward kick of a rifle after its been shot?

This will vary depending on the cartridge fired, and the weight of the rifle. With a heavy target rifle in caliber 22 LR, it will be barely noticeable. With a light hunting rifle in 30-06 caliber, it can be enough force to be painful. With VERY powerful cartridges, such as the .577 T-Rex, recoil may be enough to knock you down.
Recoil is the REACTION to the ACTION of accelerating a bullet down the barrel. The weight and speed of the bullet generate the recoil (heavier, faster bullets = more recoil) , modified by the weight of the rifle- heavier= less recoil.
