Any rifle, regardless of the caliber, can benefit from a brake. There are many reasons for having a brake for a competitive tactical rifle. It's not about being "man" enough to be able to handle the recoil, it's about being smart and taking advantage of the equipment available for you. </div></div>
Mike sorry to put you on the spot but does any particular model stand out to you? I really started looking at the JP brakes.

I think it's six of one, half a dozen of the other. I am a fan of the JP brakes as I think they work well. I've also had an APA little bastard brake. Works very well although in all honesty it's a bitch to clean due to the port angles. Badger Thruster works well too.
Bottom line, IMO, most brakes will get the job done well. I would stay away from a brake that vents in a 360* pattern but other than that, you really can't go wrong.
