I've had three muzzle brakes installed, to Vais and one by pacnor. The one by pacnor is on my 300 rum it's assisted by a H&S precision stock with the recoil spring resistor in the stock. The other two are on my 375s made by Vais. Actually made by a gentleman named Ron Bartlett out of Texas. Personally I'd send it to Texas. point of impact and accuracy never suffered. That rifle was a beast to shoot Remington 700 CDL 26 inch barrel real light, real Bruiser. Now you can hand it to your wife's little cousin and he can handle it.
