[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1173323, member: 2736"] The main thing is to make sure that the bore of the brake is at least .020 larger than the rifle bore. Less gains nothing, and more reduces the effectiveness of the brake. If the partitions are larger, the exit hole of the brake should still be .020 to .025 larger than the bore and perfectly centered on the bore to contain most of the gasses to get the efficiency and reduce the backward thrust. Different brakes have different methods of recoil reduction but the bullet must have enough clearance to prevent bullet strikes. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
