[QUOTE="Cordell, post: 454277, member: 15433"] Judd, The maker is well known to LRH members, and they have helped me with my rifle build and other questions so I am not ready to burn bridges without doing my part to resolve the issue. If making my brake a twin of my brothers works I will post what was done to get the information out to people so they know. Looking back now and knowing what I know now it is very possible I would have gone with another brake. I will have to see what shakes out with this brake over the next 2 months or how ever long it takes to get my brothers brake from him and then shoot them. Just may find the time in the next 7 days since I have them off. When I asked the company if they wanted me to keep them informed of what I learned they said they would like to know what I find out. With my gun being a couple pounds lighter than my brothers i do not expect it to kick like a 243 but it should not leave a bruise on my shoulder after one shot. It is very possible something my Smith did is causing the issue. This was the first brake of this type he has done. The ones he uses have holes all the way around and do not work well for dirt shooters like myself. When he is done wit his brakes you can not even tell where the brake and barrel meet. [/QUOTE]
