[QUOTE="Slick8, post: 1766500, member: 52585"] I agree with the suppressor comment as the 65x284 isn't overly harsh on the recoil. But they're not for everyone. I look at a brake like this. Those with ports at 90 degrees to the barrel and those with ports angled back. If the ports are 90 degrees to the barrel they're not as effective but perceived muzzle blast to the shooter and those next to you on the bench aren't as bad. Those with ports angled back give maximum recoil reduction but the tradeoff is increased muzzle blast. The Area 419 is an excellent option for the angled port brake. IMO-the 284 isn't too harsh on recoil so I'd go with a 90 degree port. I've ran a gilled brake by Harrells and now have a Vias radial brake on a light weight 30 nolser. The Vias, IMO is minimum for the 30 nos but I feel it would be great for your 284. In the field, the recoil is barely noticeable but on the bench you have to have a bit more grip on the rifle than I prefer. [/QUOTE]
