[QUOTE="randonee, post: 2098886, member: 116638"] I think this is a good podcast (Backcountry Rookies #133) interviewing the owner of Patriot Valley. He discusses different types of brakes, pro/cons, and his designs. A lot of discussion about where the blast goes. He claims his brakes reduce recoil as much as other very good rear angled brakes, but do not direct the blast onto the shooter’s shoulders or head. [URL unfurl="true"]https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/backcountry-rookies-big-game-hunting-podcast/id1446754787?i=1000488346168[/URL] Based on this podcast, I decided to try the Jet Blast on my new 33 Nosler. I must say I’m very impressed. The other day I shot it with 265 grain bullets along side my 308 with 150’s. The 308 has a side port (non-angled) brake from Benchmark. I have to say that if there was a difference in felt roil or muzzle blast, it was too small of a difference for me to detect. They definitely had a different feel, but one wasn’t better or worse than the other, and both are very easy to shoot. The 308 weighs 7.27 lbs and the 33 Nosler weighs 8.57 lbs. [/QUOTE]
