"If you're going to cast stones at muzzle brakes, there better be nothing but steel buttplates in your safe. A muzzle brake ain't anything but a recoil pad that goes on the wrong end of your rifle."

Ya got me on that one, LOL!!! Actually though, I think I do only have a couple that have soft buttplates. Interesting to hear RR on his use of them and that makes a lot of sense!
