I have a Badger Ordinance brake on mine that came with the used barrel. Seems to work well, but it is hard to tell on a 308. I should pull it off sometime just to see how much of a difference it makes. Bear in mind that there are many "muzzle brakes" out there that are nothing more than a useless ornament to stick on the end of your barrel. When shopping, keep in mind how the brake actually works by direction some of the muzzle blast rearward and upward to counter the effect of the recoil. Action/reaction stuff.
