[QUOTE="dun, post: 42908, member: 34"] Properly installed they usually don't have much affect on accurracy. But, there is alwasy the possibility that by changing the harmonics of the barrel that is can affect the load that shoots most accurately. Although they do mitigate the recoil, they are louder. The actaul shooter doesn't notice it as much, but anyonne slightly to the side of the shooter will really notice it. Depending on the design it can be just much louder to almost painfully louder. If you use a muzzlebrake, alwasy wherre hearing protection when firing it. A higher quality recoil pad like those from PAST will help some, or a shoulder pad made by the same company will also help. It alwasy seemed to me that you needed to decide which was the most acceptable form of inconvenience. The pads or the hearing protection. I had a number of hard kickers MagnaPorted and the did help soome, but more with muzzle flip then actual recoil. That process never affected the accuracy. But they weren't sub MOA rifles in the first place so a little bit of change may not have been noticed. There are also mercury recoil suppressors that can be installed in the butt thqat will help significantly, but they affect the overall handling characteristics of the rifle because of the weight in the butt. dun [/QUOTE]
