[QUOTE="redneckbmxer24, post: 3028489, member: 11459"] I have multiple cans and brakes and like both and often shoot both ways on the same rifles. If I go with the PH2 I'd still run a brake at the range because they reduce recoil more and in a lighter rifle that's important to me. Honestly unless there's a solid argument for running a can for western hunting outside of noise I'd probably just run plain muzzle and trade the extra velocity to have the same OAL instead. I've shot a lot of stuff without a suppressor and the noise never bothered me and I don't think a few more shots on a hunting trip are going to make my ears ring more than they already do. Muzzle brakes are a different story though and even with one that's not super concussive I still don't want to crack shots off without ear pro, so unless it's pretty typical to have the time to get ear pro on then I wouldn't hunt with it. Hence why I want something I'm comfortable shooting unbraked. [/QUOTE]
