[QUOTE="wboregon, post: 1449696, member: 102916"] I don't think a break is really necessary for most hunting. how ever in the spirit of LongRange Hunting, I see no issue in using one for a LR/ELR shot where you might need to see the shot. I think if you're really setting up for such a shot there should be plenty of time for hearing protection. Beyond that, if you kicking brush and hiking and expecting the chance of taking a shot quickly, then I don't think a break has any purpose, as you likely will be shooting at moderate ranges, and you likely will be so amped up that you won't feel the recoil. Plus your only shooting 1 or 2 shots any ways, not really enough to bother most people even with very strong recoiling cartridges and light weight guns. Now hearing damage definitely occurs when shooting any gun with out HP but adding a brake really takes that to an extreme. [/QUOTE]
