[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 902403, member: 13632"] I've installed and ran all of the brakes in question, not one would I shoot without hearing protection, there is no brake that you can shoot without hearing protection unless your not protecting much then you'll get away with some. The JP is excellent recoil reduction in the 7mag/300 Mag size case capacity, no air blast to the shooter in the least and excellent muzzle control. The Muscle brake is one I like a lot because of the baffle design, no blast at the shooter and maybe a little softer on the hearing but still no where near running without ear plugs. I do drill holes in the top as needed to control muzzle flip a little better. Hollands are what I like on a factory barrel install, they are effective brakes and control the muzzle well, the finish matches factory very well and is a nice install. Those are the three I install and run, all are hardened brakes which I prefer so I can keep the tolerances close and not have the first baffle get pounded closed. You can always go with a nice muzzle cap if you want to hunt with the rifle unbraked and it will work well and look very nice at the same time. [/QUOTE]
