Hello everybody.
I own a 32" Barrett 99 in 50 BMG.
I have read somewhere that replacing the OEM Muzzle Brake with a QDL would redirect the muzzle blast away from the shooter (or at least reduce it).
Can anyone confirm?
If so, my basic understanding of physics suggests that actual felt recoil would increase, but how much?
It is a $500 piece of gear and it would be nice to know if it's worth dropping the coins on it...
