[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1084713, member: 2736"] Fortunately I know something about the Assassin Muzzle brake and can give you an idea of what the recoil will be, (As good as it is, It wont Jerk you forward though Ha Ha) I have some test on .30 cal using 180 grain bullets and 84 grains of powder @ 3100 ft/sec, In a fully dressed rifle that produced= 27.4 ft/lbs of recoil with no brake. 8.7 ft/lbs With the tuned Assassin. For a 68.3% total reduction in recoil. Yours should be very close. If you give me your load (Bullet weight, velocity, powder charge and the rifle weight dressed out. I can probably get the actual recoil. After it is pillar bedded check and see if the stock can be squeezed to touch the barrel. If it is easy leave the gap as it is unless it really looks bad. If it does not contact the barrel easily then you can reduce the clearance with bedding Compound as much as you want to. good luck and good shooting. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
