[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 80427, member: 2011"] Background: Recoil reduction. Pre-Brake thinking: add more weight. Thicker wider quality recoil pad. Post Brake thinking: All of the above may be exactly backwards , especially the added weight. I seem to recall reading recently that a reduction in weight will result in a reduction of recoil with a brake (Holland QD). Well then, why not remove that pound and a half of lead from the stock before I had the brake installed? It seems that there is more going on with the brake and weight than you can see from the surface, so to speak.[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] However, I'm a bit scope shock sensitive at the moment. W/a "good" scope (Weaver tactical 4-14) will the 'increased' deceleration be worse or no difference? If this is a dumb question, well Good! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] at least now I'm askin' before running off into one of those "unresolved safety questions", or is it la la land.
