Not sure if this is in the right section or not but here goes....

I have a Bennie Hill Rolling Thunder installed on my SPR-ish build; 16" HBAR fluted stainless barrel, 15" Seekins MCSR v2 rail, Seekins lower, etc... I like the Rolling Thunder so far except for one reason: it pushes the muzzle down more than anything else, making my reticle dip below the target and I have to come back up to get back on target. This somewhat defeats the purpose of having the brake obviously, so I was wondering what other people have done in this scenario. Should I try to drill out a port on the bottom to counter the top port and the downward movement? Or should I get a new comp? Any advice is welcome.
 
Those brakes should be "timed". You can adjust them to give different characteristics depending on your rifle and shooting style. You may be able to contact Bennie personally to get some advice, he is a real nice guy!
