Not to harsh your groove -
While I understand that the vid is trying to convey that the brake is so good that even little kids and non shooters can shoot an LA weapon with (presumably) factory ammo - no one here cares.
What people here are interested in is muzzle rise / dust signature / weight / how it stacks up to brakes that are in common usage for folks with similar interest.
Also tell us more about the attachment - compression fit from 2 bolts? Does it come loose? How many rounds have you shot to say it doesn't? Do you need to loktite the bolts? Does it mar the finish on the muzzle?
And the biggy - what if any impact does it have on accuracy?
Good luck [/quote
You are 100% correct on what any real shooter will care about. Just because I have only made a few posts on this forum in no way means i have no experience as a rifleman. Your questions EXACTLY address the reason this brake was developed. It was NOT made to be pretty, it was made to be effective. The first thing addressed in the design was dust signature or direction of blowback. The ports are angled as to direct gases back and up away from the shooter and the ground. Secondly, the angle of the ports virtualy eliminate muzzle jump. The video is very amateur, only to show anyone can shoot large magnum loads. It has been shot with many variations of hand loads and on .300 Weatherby Mag, .300 Win Mag, 7mm Rem, 30-06, 7mm Lazaroni Firebird and .300 Lazaroni Warbird with great success. The weight on the Titanium brake is under 4 oz. The accuracy was in no way negatively affected by the brake and does NOT have to be caliber specific as the bullet never touches the brake. Accuracy actualy should improve with much less recoil and more importantly almost no muzzle rise. This brake was several years in the making before it was ever sold to anyone. The designer is a very skilled engineer and long time long range enthusiast. He has shot several thousand rounds thru quite a few versions of the brake in the last 3 years of testing. Like i said in an earlier post, i am only trying to help him get the word out. I dont sell them or work for him. Ill be happy to answer any other questions as best i can. This shouldnt be turned into a bash fest. I thought this would be a great forum to spread the word in. Cosmetics really shouldn`t matter for someone truly interested in performance.
