[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 502127, member: 2736"] Any of the above mentioned brakes are good ! The trick is to have it installed by a competent gun smith . An improperly installed brake of any kind may have a major effect on accuracy, and it sounds like this is what you had. I have seen some of the best brakes that were installed wrong kill the accuracy of a good rifle, and after re-cutting the barrel threads and truing the bore of the brake do a complete turn around in accuracy. The worst case was where a person (I won't call him a smith for a good reason) used a die nut to cut the the barrel threads (The brakes are normally threaded from the maker of the break) and the bullet was striking the break. The difference in breaks is there effectiveness to reduce recoil and muzzle climb. one is not any more accurate than the other if installed correctly, just more or less effective. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
