Muzzle Brake
Very good at reducing the recoil on a Ruger American 30-06

Works well
I have installed these on rifles from .243 up to .300 Win Mag. They reduce recoil significantly. One of the favorite rifles I have installed one on was my wife's Savage 110 in .300 Win Mag. She now enjoys shooting that rifle, and it has become her favorite for elk. She is 5ft4 and 130 pounds and VERY recoil sensitive. In total I have installed over two dozen of these for customers and family, and have never had a complaint. I recommend them to all of my customers looking for a brake.

Most popular brake we install
This brand of brake is not the most efficient. But it works, is not expensive, looks good on a hunting rifle, not bulky, and comes in many diameters to match any barrel. We have installed many with no complaints and lots of compliments. Our most popular model brake to install.

Effective but LOUD
I purchased this brake to put on both my parents rifles (Both .300 WSM's). Both rifles are light for the caliber and kick a lot. With these brake's installed both rifles kick more like a .308 Winchester or less. The only downside is that they make the rifles VERY loud so hearing protection is a MUST.

Excellent brakes!
I can't even count how many of these brakes (all part numbers) on this page I have installed, everything from light sporter 300WSM's down to rimfire calibers. I have NEVER had anyone that wasn't satisfied with the results. Recoil reduction is amazing.The larger O.D numbers can be tapered back to meet the bbl. O.D. for a clean installation. I don't usually write reviews, but these things work. Period. The brake should be indicated in a four jaw chuck and reamed to .020 over bullet diameter, and the barrel shoulder must be turned to a square shoulder and single point threaded. Hearing protection is required with or without the brake. Accuracy is improved because the high pressure gases are stripped away leaving a clean flight of the bullet. You can't beat the price!

Excellent value and works!
I install one of these brakes almost weekly, they are nicely made and affordable. Once the shooting community in my area saw how well they reduced recoil they literally sell themselves. Be sure to advise clients that they HAVE TO wear hearing protection when the brake is in place. Offering thread protector caps for use when hunting keeps clients happy and increases sales.

DID AS ADVERTISED
I HAD MY 308 WIN. RIFLE FIXED TO ONE OF THESE MUZZLE BRAKES AND IT RECOILED LESS IN FELT RECOIL BUT WHAT I REALLY LIKED WAS THAT IT DID NOT EFFECT ACCURACY AS THE RIFLE SHOT AT 100 YARDS A 3 SHOT GROUP THAT COULD BE COVERED BY A DIME.
