Most effective muzzle brake?

[helidriver72]

If this has already been discussed my apologies, anyway here's the scoop. I've got a .338 edge shooting the standard 300 gn SMK load. It's about a 13# rifle with a 30" sendero countour barrel. It's currently wearing a 3 port muzzle brake. It's a very accurate rifle but my problem is I'm experiencing some muzzle jump that's affecting my accuracy at extended ranges. Is there any one muzzle brake that is absolutely the most effective recoil reducer? I was looking at the 5 port painkiller brake from APS. Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Give the TTI Eliminator a look as well. A writer did a real interesting study measuring both felt recoil and muzzle flip reduction on about a half dozen of the more popular brakes a few years back and the TTI was surprisingly effective.

Just google it.

I shot one on a friends 300 RUM and I was very impressed.

Give the Fat Bastard muzzle brake a serious look at I would rate it as the best in its class for the 338 lapua

+1 on the painkiller, but Kirby will tell you the 5 port is wasted on that cartridge. It is designed for much larger case volume, I am sure he will sell you one though if you really want it.

Holland Radial on my 338 lapua ack imp has very slight push but no jump _

Thanks alot for the input guys! So maybe the 4 port painkiller is the way to go?

You may just have a smith punch a top port in your current brake, that may be enough.

Oops I mean the medium 3 port painkiller, thanks for all the replies!
