[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 946897, member: 2736"] Any Experienced shooter will tell you none of these things are good for accuracy. Different people have different tolerances to recoil. And It has nothing to do with toughness. I can manage around 85 ft/lbs before it starts to effect my accuracy. some have more resistance to recoil, But the majority prefer around 25 ft/lbs of recoil, or less to be comfortable. Even though someone thinks they are "Tough" and can handle more, they risk the chance of a Retinal Detachment when shooting high recoiling rifles. I have a 50 BMG and the recoil without any form of Muzzle is over 115 Ft/lbs of recoil (To much to be safely shot even buy the toughest) without some form of muzzle brake. The most effective way to reduce recoil is a Muzzle brake. there are many other ways also, but they are far less effective. Each person has to decide whether he wants to put up with recoil or not. Lots of rifles don't need any form of recoil reduction, others require some form of recoil reduction in order to be manageable and accurate. I will choose manageable and accurate, over tough and macho every time. Just My Opinion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
