[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 442141, member: 14204"] Welcome to LRH and enjoy! NO! The muzzle brake does not touch the bullet or alter its ballistic path. A muzzle brake will not affect the accuracy of the first shot fired because the bullet has already left the barrel at the instant that the muzzle brake takes effect. [LEFT][COLOR=#000000] Depending on the shooter and the rifle in question, the muzzle brake may affect the accuracy of subsequent shots, not by altering the function of the firearm, but by allowing the shooter to maintain an accurate site picture between shots, and by alleviating muscle strain resulting from harsh recoil -- thus avoid/reduce flinching, that can significantly affect the shot's accuracy. I leave all my muzzle brakes attached at all times and requires minimal cleaning. I'm sure the guys will chime in soon. Happy safe shooting/hunting.
