[QUOTE="Stephen Orleski, post: 2201326, member: 102453"] Agree the brake w/o plugs can be really bad. My friends wife is small, I bet she weighs 105 wet.. and with a light rifle w/o a brake, she would probably not be able to hunt the larger animals. Same thing for smaller kids, like my 14 year old niece, she might be 80 lbs. You wouldn't want them to develop a flinch waiting for recoil. Same for my wife, she likes to shoot her 308, but it has a brake, but she hates shooting her 20 gauge when we do trap.. too much recoil for her. She could probably do a 243 w/o a brake, which would be ok for most whitetails, but shooting a 270 or 308 w/o a brake for people of this size would probably deter them from getting into the sport.
