Been working up loads for a few months but needed to get some recoil out of my 6.5 Creedmoor. My pacemaker does not like the bounce LOL. A friend install a muzzle brake last week so I took it back to the range and was not happy at first. But after torquing down the stock screws on Choate tactical stock my groups came into 1/2 Moa. Guess I can be happy with that for now. Wondering if adding a muzzle brake which extended My overall Barrel 1 and 1/2 in will affect accuracy as far as loads and nodes are concerned?
