[QUOTE="milo-2, post: 2051721, member: 33622"] Muzzle brakes have came a long ways in recent yrs concerning effectiveness. IMO, today, reduction of recoil starts with the size of area of the first port coming out of the barrel. Direction too. If you machine a brake down to a .620" dia of the muzzle, it will not be nearly as effective as one made or turned down to .900" or bigger. I am not 100% here but in pistol compensators(brakes), a certain amount of gas is needed to make them work in your favor. So i would think rifle brakes should or could work this way based off design.
