has anybody had any experience with these muzzle brakes? they claim that it reduces recoil by about 50%(as do most others), but they also claim that it does not make it any louder- that's the kicker. i want a muzzle brake that won't make me deaf. check out da link!

Hi i have a brake from www.muzzlebrake.com this brake does work well but you will need your hearing pertection. ask the guys BP if they have a money back gauarantee if you are not satisfied if they do what do you have to loose . theese guys do and also do very good work . i don't know how a brake could not create more noise . but if you find one i would be interested .Bob

Don't kid yourself. ALL brakes increase the level of noise. Some just redirect it away from the shooter. There are other ways of dealing with recoil other than adding something that WILL ruin your hearing. Lawdog

Lawdog_Gary,
what other ways are there to reduce recoil beside the mercury reducer?
