The reduction in recoil comes at a very high price: Increased noise and concussion.
i used to own a .416 Rigby without a muzzlebrake; the recoil was not that bad.
i'm very surprised that many modern day shooters are so sensitive ro recoil. i see posts where guys want reduced recoil .260 Remington and .308 Wincheste ammo.
IMO: if a healthy guy can't handle the recoil of a .308 Winchester he's doing something wrong.
