I don't see why they wouldn't work? Only issue maybe a baffle strike if it wasn't aligning just right to the bore. I imagine they are fairy generous with their bore tolerances to prevent this. Which in return makes a brake less efficient in reducing recoil and depending on how much, it could cause accuracy issues. I'm curious as to how well one would reduce recoil.

I know one guy that mainly uses clamp on brakes for long distance shooting and he never has said anything bad about them. He uses a different type and brand though.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

I have considered it for a 300wsm but I think they look rough and aren't any less $$$.  I am thinking Defensive Edge right now.  But I might just buy a another gun either 6.5 something ish.
