[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1767216, member: 14204"] This reminds me of my first venture in using muzzle brake in 2003. At the time, it seems that design were all similar except the radial brakes (do not recommend this type). I went with Holland's QD 3-port (90 degrees) on my .300 WM and works like a champ. Felt recoil was comparable to .243s/.308s. Today, there are plenty of effective and efficient design muzzle brakes that not only reduces felt recoil but also muzzle rise. Price varies depending on design and manufacturing build. Basically, it is ~$100 for the muzzle threading plus the cost of the muzzle brake. The self-indexing type is a big plus. The best balance between recoil and blast can be subjective and there are plenty of tests out there. IIWY, because this is your first (not going to be your last) hands-on experience is best. Do you have friends that might be able to help you try a braked rifle? Anyways, for your consideration, check out [URL]https://muzzlebrakesandmore.com/testing-videos[/URL] I do not have hands-on experience with this but here's another consideration [URL]http://www.grizzlygunworks.com/fake-silencer-2in1.html[/URL] I cannot remember who but there is a member (I think it's [USER=101677]@Canhunter35[/USER] but not sure) that has been using this for a while a is very pleased with it. Hopefully he'll chime in. Good luck! Ed [/QUOTE]
