that's fixing to change, both house & senate passed the bill and it's on the way to your governor.

I would think it would deflect the blast slightly away from the shooter compared to a non recessed crown. Make it a little more comfortable for people around the rifle. That is way too dramatic to be just protection for the crown, especially for a bench rifle.

Mr Franklin, the builder of the gun, calls it his quiet crown.

Re: Deep Bored Crown And Noise Reduction

Theoretically this would help focus the sound waves towards the targer but the rapid dispersion of hot gases escaping from behind the bullet will still make a loud sound. I think the effect will be minimal at best.

This deep of a crown recession should essentially work the same as a Noveske KX3 flash suppressor.
