    I braked by 7mm Rem Mag after not being able to spot my own shots. The brake reduced recoil by 50%. Greg Duley did mine (not to start another GD v KG fight like the other forum) but it is a very nice 6 port directional brake.

    I have videos of the rifle unbraked and then braked. the difference is very visible. I can now take a shot and watch the bullet impact.

    I am running gunworks pod spikes, rear bag, cheek rest, timney trigger at 1.8lb. These all add up to making it easy to stay on target during recoil.

    My advice is practice. The cheek rest should be set so you rest your cheek on it with your eyes closed, open your eyes and see no scope shadow. Try setting up a video camera to see what is happening??

    Correct me if I am wrong tho

    cheers
