308 & 338 Edge, brake & suppressor comparison test
I have heard it said & written heaps of times that suppressors reduce recoil heaps.....
From personal experience I though this was a little suss so I decided to have a play to see the difference.
This isn't a hi-tech super accurate to the last decimal place tekkie type test, but all the same they are pretty conclusive :)
The first video is just the 308 Montana with & without the suppressor, I left the brake at home....:oh noes:
Using Belmont remanufactured rounds not sure but they might be 130-150 grain projectiles.

I went back in the afternoon so took the brake with me this time.

Had to disturb another one of the locals earlier whilst testing the new Reloder 33 in the Edge :)

Here is a video of my Shorty 338 Edge, the 23.5" barrel still will push the 300s just over 2700 :cool:

Interesting stuff :)
I think that Suppressors do reduce the physical recoil a little, they reduce the perceived recoil dramatically through noise reduction.
Some suppressors may be better than others at this.

Should do a test of all the major players in the suppresor world . What sort of can was that in the test?. I use a supressor on everything now call me a pussy but its just plain unpleasant fireing unmoderated rifles for me anyway.
