[QUOTE="19elkhunter51, post: 1898570, member: 14169"] I will confess to being one of the "old school" guys. Muzzle brake? Just for sissys that can't shoot their rifle. Don't need no stinkin loud muzzle brake! Then I shot a 338 Edge with a muzzle brake. That got my attention. When I had my 338 Edge built it had that brake on the end. During load development for the 338 Edge I decided that muzzle brakes were the bomb! I promptly had the smith put a brake on my 300 RUM and when he put a new barrel on my 22-250 I had a brake put on that rifle also. After shooting my rifles with brakes on them my best friend and his girlfriend had brakes put on their hunting rifles. I have several other rifles that I shoot and when I find another reputable smith I will probably put muzzle brakes on those rifles as well. I am not and have never been recoil sensitive but I truly enjoy what a muzzle brake does to the ability to tame recoil to call your own shots. I know now that when I start my grandsons shooting a rifle, it will have a muzzle brake on the end of it. [/QUOTE]
