[QUOTE="Decap, post: 2575457, member: 118394"] If you're expecting it to work anything at all like a suppressor you're going to be really disappointed. In fact even calling it a muzzle brake is a pretty big misnomer. Muzzle brakes direct gases back at an angle to create a "pull" against the "push" of recoil that is how they reduce it. A linear comp that directs all of the blast forward will do nothing about recoil and might even increase it, although with a 7 mm-08 I don't see that being a big issue. As for noise there's no getting around the NFA. If it reduced sound even by 1db, it would be classed as a suppressor. [/QUOTE]
