[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2051796, member: 75451"] You cannot discount the “cool factor” Star Wars appearance of the big brakes. 😂 But, to answer your question.... once upon a time(90’s) KDF produced the “Slim Line” brake. It seemed very effective in reducing felt recoil and made muzzle blast unbearable (without ear protection)! I had the lightest contour of barrel that Douglas offered for the .375, and the brake was the same diameter as the barrel. As I was “NOT” going to wear plugs/muffs while hunting, it was quickly disposed of! My 9 pound .375 AI simply does not recoil enough to warrant a brake! If I shot lots of rounds from the bench, I would probably reconsider a brake! memtb [/QUOTE]
