Title: Killer Innovations Brake
Post by: Hot Rod Willy on July 31, 2014, 06:35:54 PM: Well I got one of the KI brake and put it on my new build. This is a BHW barrel chambered in 243LBC 24" I picked up for a deal and a half. Went out and shot it a couple weeks ago shoots amazing no felt recoil and it is very easy to see impact at least on targets. I had a little issue with head space my fault had a type2 bolt in it when I should of had a type1. Cases grew a little on the shoulder so I'll just bump them back and try again. Can't wait to shoot it some more but it's too dang hot maybe this weekend. Let me know what you guys think of this build.

Sweet!

That's exactly what the brake was designed for.
