[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1900929, member: 93895"] There was a difference but it wasn't huge for me. The rifle is 14lbs so it may very well be more of a difference in felt recoil on a lighter rifle. Im running a Mac's baffled break with ports not angled back. This brake is not as loud as my rear angled brakes but like so it probably doesn't take as much recoil off. I just now come in from shooting a 6.5 PRC I'm about finished up with. I didn't put a brake on it. I haven't weighed it but it's not a lighter weight. Was able to spot my hits fine. I don't blame anyone for running a brake but it just wasn't necessary for me on that rifle. I run some Mercury filled cylinders in the buttstock of those two rifles mentioned to balance them. I'm sure they take some recoil off also [/QUOTE]
