[QUOTE="wapitiaddict, post: 2003202, member: 107569"] As others said, suppressors don't reduce recoil near as much as a brake. But I've found making sure length of pull is correct for your body and a good recoil bad, in addition to a suppressor, will get felt recoil down a lot. Regarding LOP, I was surprised how much it can affect muzzle jump. I was shooting my son's 6.5CM with an adjustable stock. When I extended the stock out from 12.5 inches to 13.5 inches LOP, the muzzle jump virtually went away. At 12.5 I couldn't spot my shots, but at 13.5 LOP I could because the muzzle didn't jump as much. Back to suppressors for hunting....I went on an elk hunt 3 years ago with a friend who had a suppressor. After he took multiple shots in a rushed situation(read, didn't have time to put on hearing protection) to bring down a bull with me calling his shots I was sure glad he had it - saved my ears. Since then I've purchased two myself and thinking about adding a third. [/QUOTE]
