Muzzle brakes and the 300wby vanguard (pics added)
My new vanguard like the ruger No1 I owned previously keeps trying to crack my skull even with moderate loadings. I've alredy upgraded to a bell and carlson stock , the scope is a sightron 3x9x40 which seems to have plenty of eye relief. So the next step will probably be a brake. I'm leaning twards buying one from score high gunsmithing, unless you fellas have some better suggestions.
Those of you that have brakes on your rifles, Do they tame the recoil down enouht to warrant the cost? Are they so loud that I'll go deaf shooting it in the field without hearing protection?
