[QUOTE="lamiglas, post: 935742, member: 11075"] First let me say that I really believe you will not regret putting on a brake. I have worked up loads for several rifles over the last couple of years where the owners either had to save up for a brake, or wanted to make sure the gun would shoot good before spending money on a brake and or bedding. Every time (except one gun) we had to change the load slightly after the work was done. I have heard from my smith and others that a brake doesn't necessarily make your gun shoot better, but allows you to shoot it better. I can say 100% that every gun has ended up shooting better For us with the brake than it did before. Again, I would bet though ( based on my experience with several rifles) that there is a good chance you will have to change your load slightly. Well worth it though in my opinion. We have found that the sweet spot only changes by .5 grain one way or the other and has always shot even better than before. Type of brake etc could make a difference? Maybe with your set up there will be no difference? Lastly, knowing what I know now, I strongly encourage all my friends to wait until brake and bedding is done before load work up. saves time and money in the long run. I would go for it, but its your call. Good luck with your decision. [/QUOTE]
