[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3844509, member: 48072"] I've stayed out of this because I wanted to recommend a brake and adjustable gas block...which I know you were initially set against. My experience with multiple rifles has been that if you use a brake with 90 degree ports, the blast is not nearly as bad to the shooter as those with ports angled at 45 degrees or whatever. The 'no free lunch' part is that angled port brakes do reduce more recoil by design. The work around is to double up on ear pro (foam plugs and muffs over). Sometimes I'll wear my ear buds and listen to music with my muffs on too during a range session (private range, my pasture...probably not safe on a public range). Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
