[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 293901, member: 2736"] AJ is right. The deflector will negate the recoil reduction of the break. I tried something similar a few years ago on a assault rifle that was terrible and could not be shot without ear protection. I finally ended up making a cone/funnel shaped brake that did reduce the noise to a reasonable level, But it did not reduce the recoil very much ,(And it looks weird). There is a break that can be opened or closed that would be good for hunting because when at the range the ports could be opened and when hunting could be closed reducing noise. The way you have the brake drawn you could do the same thing buy making the outer sleeve with holes to match your break and simply rotate the sleeve to open or close the brake.But the sleeve would have to be strong enough to take the pressure when closed.
