I have a grind to fit Limbsaver on my Manners 300WM combined with a YHM brake, I have pushed 50 rounds in one day through it without feeling the slightest bit sore. I think the loudness that people talk about is exaggerated; my 300WM is loud, but people make it seem as if your ears will bleed if you put a brake on. I'm going to add a brake to my .243 and .260 just so I can spot trace and hits easier.
