[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 854432, member: 10429"] In the thought of breaks I reasently had one installed on my 300RUM. My first shot with the break was Thursday of this week. Needless to say I forgot to put in some ear plugs. I did not know what to expect so I was holding the gun tight and squeezed one off. The concussion or blast completely caught me by surprise and for about the next 15 minutes my ears were ringing. I could not even tell you if the first shot recoiled the same or a lot less due to the blast. So ears now have stopped ringing and I get back on the bench with ear plugs. (I was not a range). Out west in the desert of Utah....Back on the bench I squeezed another round off.... WOW....WOW!!!!!! I could almost not believe it . I think I jumped out of my bench and danced around before thinking about loading another round.
