[QUOTE="Slick8, post: 2711546, member: 52585"] Yes, it's possible but experience a suppressor doesn't provide near the recoil reduction compared to a quality brake. It's all physics and an UL 338 without a break will get your attention. What you've left out is your performance expectations. What bullet and velocity do you have in mind? The only one I could see meeting your recoil requirement is the 338 Federal. But, I don't think that's going to meet your performance expectations regarding bullet weight and MV. As to the second question, yes and good smith using quality parts can make a .5MOA UL rifle. It won't be cheap and will likely take some good hand loading to find a load that will shoot but it's certainly possible. It's all a compromise and typically the less we're willing to compromise the more it cost. [/QUOTE]
