[QUOTE="kraig, post: 1703202, member: 108101"] You said you didn't know much about brakes yet. Do yourself a favor and read up on these couple of articles. I found them useful before myself & my son decided what do use. My two favorites right now are the JP Eliminator (if you can handle the looks, most people say it looks like a tank brake...that is 1/2 of what I like about it the other more important 1/2 is that it is the best for staying on target if you want to see impacts) My second favorite right now is ZRO Delta. I have a generation 1 on my 300PRC and on my 223 (not that it needs it) but they probably have more recoil reduction than the JP but don't stay on target quite as good. The second generation ZRO delta is even better than the gen1. The ZRO delta isn't as harsh on the bench next to you where the JP is a little more noisy for the guy next to you. This is what I have experience with other than cheapo brakes that came on stuff I've bought, most of them didn't do much for recoil reduction and did a lot to make it very loud. OH last suggestion, when using a brake if you can double up on your ears. (foamies & ears...it will make you a better shot...I didn't believe it, don't like wearing muffs but it turns out to be true) OK...links for you...
