[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1449070, member: 313"] On rifles up to about 7mm Mag I much prefer NO brake. Brakes are a PITA but do reduce recoil. I've hunted with braked rifles and kept hearing protection around my neck or sitting over my upper arm. When a game animal appears, you will have ten other things on your mind. I've shot my braked 338RUM twice with no hearing protection because the thought never entered my mind and there was little time to get the shot off. Load some 120gr bullets in that 7mm and see if that helps. [/QUOTE]
