[QUOTE="bultinkle, post: 2837950, member: 122809"] A decent brake will always reduce recoil more than a suppressor. But, that’s not to say suppressors don’t do a good job of it as well . Where suppressors really excel is in concussion reduction. Lots of shooters flinch not just due to recoil, but because of the blast. Especially with big agressive brakes The difference in shooting experience is pretty drastic imo. Lots of noise, lots of head thumping feel, lots of gas to the face etc. none of that roust nonsense with a can. It’s like -2x the sound and -2x the recoil. Vs a brake is +2x the sound and -3x recoil. I own both, I vastly prefer suppressed, but there are times where brakes win out for more niche situations like prs rifles wanting every bit of recoil reduction, or maybe “canyon rifles” LRH rifles that are gonna be carried around with a long barrel and need lots of recoil reduction for a big payload. It’s hard to describe without experiencing both, but hopefully that took a swing at it. [/QUOTE]
