[QUOTE="PGJPJ, post: 1223827, member: 90674"] Sure, I guess my issue with brakes is the potential for hearing damage. If your set-up on a ridge for a long range shot, you'll likely have plenty of time to put on hearing protection. When I think of cartridges like the 338-06 I think of close in timber hunting, where shot decisions are quick, and you may not even have the opportunity to get your muffs/plugs on. Probably just a pet peeve of mine :D My Rem 700 223 VTR (bolt gun) has a factory brake/thing. Even that thing is pretty loud, but that brake design is probably pretty poor compared to some of the options out there. [/QUOTE]
