[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1468105, member: 69478"] I agree that muzzle brakes are affective, but they aren’t 100% affective. Yeah my .308 Norma shooting a 208 ELD at 3050fps kicks like my brothers 6.5 Creedmoor, but it weighs 12-13lbs. A rifle half that weight shooting similar bullet weights and velocities will kick more like a .30-06 with a stout load. That’s all well and fine for certain applications, but not if you intend to shoot long range and spot your impacts. Throw a brake on a 6.5 SAUM with 140s at 3050 in a 6lb rig and now you have the recoil of a 10lb 6.5 Creedmoor, you can spot your hits, and do it with more horsepower. [/QUOTE]
