    It really comes down to what you want to achieve & how recoil sensitive you are.

    A decent muzzle brake will reduce the 300 win mag down to 243 levels or less depending on projectile weight.

    They are nasty antisocial things at the best of times & hearing protection is mandatory.

    Don't be fooled by all the anecdotal talk of suppressors reducing heaps of recoil it is a myth.

    Suppressors reduce noise down to a nearly manageable level but not to a completely "hearing safe" level definitely better than no suppressor.
