The extra noise and concussion from a brake hurts me a lot worse than recoil. Even with earmuffs I still get a headache.
Ear plugs under your muffs will usually help with that. (If you are forced to shoot one with a brake again, that is)



I usually shy away from DBM's because I have ran into two occasions where the mag severely limited my seating depth. Glad they went with a blind mag.

Any idea how much weight the LRH will gain with an unfluted barrel?
