[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1230270, member: 33822"] I was not unhappy with the 4-port muscle brake, I just really like how small and streamline the Terminator brake is. I think that was my #1 reason for the switch. I do think it reduces recoil a bit better but not to a huge degree. I think for their size and weight the Terminator brakes are unbeatable. Overall I am extremely happy with both this T3 and the T2 on my 300 win mag. Bigngreen, I think what you're saying makes a lot of sense about port angle and bore through hole. I think some gains could be made in design if a guy used some advanced computer modeling to design a brake, but like you say, probably not life altering. And for my rifle, it's not that I really care to get back the 47 FPS that I lost, I'm just interested in consistency, and be confident in my long range trajectory. I don't want to have my higher velocity show up on opening morning of my elk hunt and then have a shot impact high. I'll play around a little more and see if I can get confidence that my new muzzle velocity is here to stay. [/QUOTE]
