[QUOTE="Brent, post: 28532, member: 99"] Jerry, The crown condition will be just as critical, as it allows gas to escape evenly as the bullets leaves the rifling and the brake both. The correct degree on the crown I would agree is debatable, assuring it's a good crown job is essential IMHO. I've seen people more effected by heavy kickers than I have from muzzle blast, although a condition where blast is diverted from the side and then back at the shooter, such as objects near by is an awefull experience to put up with, with a 50BMG it can easily feel like you got punched in the nose. The 90 degree diverting brakes I've used seem tolerable without any blast in the face, but I'm not bothered by much anyway so who knows. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] A muzzle brake is more and more effective the lighter the rifle gets, I'm told by my smith. Flinching is something I've managed to elliminate in my practice, but it did take alot of work. Holding perfectly still on the bull consistantly when it goes off is the part I work on mostly. If you can get a suppressor it's the way to go I think, just too many troubles and eyes on you if you do, I think that's why most don't elect to. My buddy has a full auto suppressed Glock 9mm and many more, the Glock is a riot tho. [/QUOTE]
