muzzle brakes can tame a big cartridge

Idk about yall, but i can't keep my eyes open with big braked rifles. You can feel the pressure inside your head, and all the shit flying around, the noise. I'd rather the recoil. I feel like I'm back on target quicker with an unbraked rifle, within reason of course. My only data point for the same rifle braked and bare muzzle is a .300 win mag and a .35 whelen. In both rifles I prefer the recoil to the sinus shock from the brake.

It depends on the brake I think. I had previously used MBM brakes and never experienced pressure as a shooter and didn't know why folks were commenting about it but I used a PVA jet blast this year and noticed that pressure blast as the shooter.

I'm not trying to create a urinary Olympiad or any type of negative debate.

The thread is about pressure and I'm going to stick to it at this point.
