Thread: A little play at the range with a suppressor brakes, vids

Good way to test greg shows how they work also

I remember same sort or test on vid with a 338 lapua? just sitting on the bench, they cant have liked it mush first shot threw it down the hill with brake it went few inches??

........try test the brake for quiteness against the suppressor the thing they are made to do everything has a compremise

I got a noise meter to try to test how loud brakes were against one another & suppressors but it turns out you need a real $$$ one to be able to test it properly because the noise has such a massive peak.

I was just trying to see how much suppressors reduce recoil.
I have done it with 338s, Edge, Wsm & Fed, 300 Win mag & they still beat the crap out of you even compared to a very average brake.
So I wondered about the 308.
I have heard it so often, that suppressors reduce heaps of recoil, which is an old wives tale, my testing has shown so far.

They deffinately reduce the perceived recoil due to the noise suppression, but actual recoil.........

Suppressors reduce noise very well, some much better than others.

Muzzle brakes reduce recoil very well, some much better than others.
