Range Report POI shift before/after mounting a muzzlebrake ?

I have the opportunitiy to mount a Roedale muzzlebrake on my 26" heavy barrel .308 700_ if anyone has previously tested this combo, any info about it will be welcome_ Thanks to all_

About all I can offer is that the zero will change with and without the brake. Accuracy did not change on my Savage 10 FCP-K but the zero did. I like the brake but have learned to shoot without it so that I can enter an F-class match some day.

I run a break on my 20" AR and it changed my zero. I actually gained a MOA back if not mistaken may have been slightly more and maybe about half a MOA on the windage, would have to check my data book to be sure. Not the setup you're asking about but reinforcing what Joe said above me. It gave me the ability to see the impact rather than reset and look for my hit.

thanks to all : my main worry was shooting the neighborhood's target... beside deafening it
