I shoot the .300 WM.
I am considering a muzzle brake. But not too familiar with any of them.
So I ask yous guys . . . Which one do you recommend that will maintain maximum accuracy? Minimize (most)recoil? Not deafen three counties? And what would I expect to pay a gunsmith for it as well as instalation?
Anything alse would be appreciated.
I have a VAIS on my .416 Rigby. It does tame recoil, does not affect accuracy, and the maker claims it is "quiet". The peopl who were nec=xt to my firing point at the range the day I tested it said they didn't think it sounded any louder than if I had been firing an unbraked .30/'06. Bit honestly, I don't really know, as I wore hearing protection every time I fired it. I have yet to fire the.416 w/o the brake, but have no recoil problems with rifles up to and including a 7.5 pound Ruger No. 1 in .45/70, firing a 400-grain bullet substantially above 2000 FPS.....
