[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 1851855, member: 61747"] So yes and no for me. In order to keep rifle overall length the same or less I had to go to short barrel. That meant a loss in FPS. Going from a 28 down to a 20-22 for example. Roughly 200 fps. Shooting brakeless the sound was not that bad on a 28 to the shooter. Running a brake the sound is horrible to the shooter. So in the end I'd rather run a lighter recoiling rifle without a brake then a heavier recoiling rifle with one. I went to the can primarily for my dog. He goes with me often and the sound doesn't bother him at all with the can. Without the can he was getting very jumpy and I was worried it'd ruin him. Now, I don't want to shoot a rifle without a can and have had to accept the draw backs I described above. [/QUOTE]
