[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1450482, member: 2736"] Actually, A properly installed muzzle brake can Improve the accuracy for several reasons. One is the fact that they add weight to muzzle which improves the harmonics of the barrel. The other Is that they help the shooter concentrate on trigger control instead of worrying about the recoil. I have never seen a PROPERLY installed muzzle brake hurt accuracy. Mainly because the bullet has left the barrel before the muzzle brake starts to do its job. the only time i have found that accuracy was hurt was with rifles with improperly installed brakes that caused bullet strike. As far as ear damage, if you fire a rifle/firearm with or without a brake only once a year, you do damage to your ears. if you shoot many times it is accumulative so your hearing loss is accelerated. don't kid your self that one or two shots don't do damage. every time you lose a small amount of hearing, you don't get it back and the more you shoot without ear protection, the more you lose.
