[QUOTE="tim_w, post: 2644380, member: 11132"] I never stated it did not provide any reduction just not nearly as much as a brake. I agree suppressors reduce recoil. No way a arbitrary % of brake vs suppressor could be established given there are larger differences in reduction just within popular brakes on the market. I bet the same would go for suppressors effect as well. I still will take a suppressor over a brake accept in a competition setup or where clearly spotting my shots is critical on magnums. My newest gun is a 21.5" 338 Mega cf stock is 6.5 lbs bare 8.5-9.5lb ready to hunt depending on scope rings setup. 250gr mv 2850-2900 fps 4667ft/lb is not behaving enough to spot downrange without a brake. But I will for hunting trade that for the sound and concussion reductions of the suppressor. Who wants to wear double ear protection hunting if they can get away with simple ear plugs!?! [/QUOTE]
