[QUOTE="chris matthews, post: 10937, member: 66"] The guys are right on- if a brake is not put on correctly and the bullet hits the brake it will turn the rifle into a 6" as stated. If the brake is put on right it will not affect accuracy (group size) but it can and most likely will change point of impact. You need to decide to use the brake or not and then develop you load with or w/o and stick to that. Switching back and forth will just burn up your barrel faster and get you nowhere. I installed over a 100 brakes last year, about half of them on proven rifles and didn't have 1 single report of the brake changing accuracy adversely. If anything the brakes improved accuracy by reducing recoil therfore reducing flinching. [ 05-11-2004: Message edited by: chris matthews ] [/QUOTE]
