[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2641584, member: 30902"] I don't think you're going to get there especially with a 26" barrel. With a light barrel like you are talking about I think you're also setting yourself up for some very punishing recoil even with the best of the brakes available today trying to push such a heavy bullet to that velocity. I would probably be looking at at least a 28, preferably 30"bbl if not longer to try and get there and at least a Sendero contour on an all steel barrel to mitigate the recoil and muzzle flip. The best brakes though that I know of are the JP Rifles brake that looks like it belongs on an artillery piece the second being the 5 Port Muscle Brake. [/QUOTE]
