Here's a heads up for folks with big kickers with brakes. 
 
I have a buddy who won the Washington state competition in rifle shooting.  This includes standing, sitting and prone. 
 
He bought a .338 RUM and had a brake installed.  He was getting 1 1/2" groups with it.  I suggested he hold the rifle against his shoulder like he would a BB gun.  The groups went to 1/2" at 100 yards.  Wouldn't do that without a brake.

I am all for brakes on rifles. It would be nice if suppressors were easier to come by. Best of both worlds IMO
