What one do you use on your rifles or recommend? It’s been a long time since I used a rifle with a break. The last one I used was a Romanian PSL. The break isn’t that impressive on it but I swear that there is a good bit of back pressure brought back. I ended up taking it off and just putting a flash hider on it. For me it made a world of difference and it no longer had that impulse or wave or whatever it is coming back at me. If I had the break on it, it would make me blink every time. I put the flash hider back on it and no more blinking for me. I swear it was just like if you had a can of compressed air but worse and somebody pointed at your face and shot you with it. I have a Winchester 300 WinMag and I was wanting to thread the barrel for a break on it. But after shooting that PSL with its break it changed my mind all together and I had no desire for a break after that. I have a couple pistols that have brakes on them and I’ve never noticed any backblast with them other than them being extremely noisy.</blockquote>
