[QUOTE="liltank, post: 491028, member: 13275"] Sounds like you need to take it back to the smith. There is no reason that a break should impact accuracy in a negative way. Most people get better, because recoil is reduced allowing the person to want to stay behind the rifle when it is fired. As for the OP, it is personal preference, but as stated by Jarhead we have time to plug our ears. The best option of course is an amplified ear muff or the hearing aids that are designed to be amplified ear plugs (the cheapo's at Wal-Mart suck, Don't waist your money). Anyway, I have a .308 Win w/ a break. Is it necessary... no, but I need to be able to spot my own shots when I don't have a spotter. This allows that gun to stay steady. If you know that you are going to be hunting somewhere that you have time to use ear protection I would get the break. If you are shooting in brush, you could always take the break off for short shot hunting scenarios. Just make sure you do some homework to make sure you know how your POA is going to be effected w/ and w/o the break. Tank [/QUOTE]
