[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 237022, member: 2011"] I would suggest that it will take a brake of larger than your 0.6" spec to be of any use at all. I would also suggest that the weight of the brake, if not excessive, will have limited affect on carry weight unless you're a wimp like me.:D Suggestions would be the Holland QD, (I have one on a 338 RUM), A Defensive Edge (I have one on a 270 AM), one of Kirby Allen's new designs or 308 Nate's brake. Also the lighter the rifle the more effective the brake. My 338 RUM with 300 SMKS improved quite a bit when weight was reduced from 11+ lbs to 9.5. Get a VERY good set of scope mounts and rings. Minimum would be Leupold double dove tail base and rings. NF/Badger/Near/etc would be much better. [/QUOTE]
