    Muzzle break will reduce recoil, recoil made my 8mm06 hard to shoot accurately not because I couldn’t hold it but because the rest I was using (sand bag) needed resetting every shot. With careful reset it drilled single hole five shot group, without it was 1 minute. That made load development difficult.
    Remember the 7 “P”s; Pryor Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance.
