A FACTORY BRAKE IS FOR REAL NO GIMMICK. I have the Weatherby 30-378 with the accubrake and i shoot it one handed on the rest. No muzzle jump or painful recoil. It works great. Unfortunately Weatherby does not make a LH gun. They are very loud and deafening. I have a pair of QB3's an hard plastic head phone with ear plugs. Moves up to the ear real fast and provides some protection. At the range....muffs on plugs. I try to wear my QB3's when I shoot any gun in the field....any trophy is not worth hearing loss.
