[QUOTE="woods, post: 230877, member: 6042"] Fiftydriver, I must confess I am uneducated on the 2 types of muzzle brakes. What is the identifying characteristic that classifies a muzzle brake as one or the other? When you posted "with a radial port muzzle brake like the one on your rifle", I didn't know if you were referring to the one I posted a picture of or the one shown in the original post. Here is a pic of another type of muzzle brake that is on a 30-06 and it is .352" [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/GUNS/BRILEYMUZZLEBRAKE.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/bwestfall/GUNS/DSCN0898.jpg[/IMG] It is not on my rifle but I was also shooting it this last weekend and noticed that it was louder and there was a puff of air that came back. It was effective though. Jeff, I am no expert but it would make more sense to me that the tighter the brake the more effective it would be but probably not to a large degree. [/QUOTE]
