hello i have a ruger m-77 in .300 winchester magnum. i would like to buy.. if it is possible... a muzzle brake... didnt know any better.... im looking forward to having my shoulder turn back to white. thank you
 
I have the same rifle, it can kick some fierce with hot loads... Instead of a muzzle brake why not put a good recoil pad on it? Something like a Pachmayer Decelerator like I have on mine, or one of the highly touted SIMS ones. It made a big difference on my post surgery shoulder. For shooting from the bench you might even want to wear a Past mag plus recoil shield. I find that when hunting and shooting offhand I dont even feel the recoil, it's when sighting the rifle in at the bench that it hurts. Those muzzle brakes are so dang noisy!

Is this the tang safety model? A buddy had one and it kicked the bejesus out of everybody who shot it :lol: My M77 MkII is in .338WinMag and doesn't kick half as bad as his M77 :shock: Have you tried a Pachmayer or Limbsaver recoil pad? It really helped with my .338 and if that doesn't work, you can always replace the stock (The Bell & Carlson Carbelite would be my first choice) Muzzle brakes can be installed but IMHO, unless you are shooting something along the lines of a .30-378 or .308 Warbird (or larger :shock: :twisted: ) I don't think they're required. Hey, you can always sell the .300 and get a .30-06 or something...just a thought :wink:
 
only certain ones Redd , all 3 of mine now have been quite pleasant, exept 1 that did belt you under GOOD handloads :wink: , also alot of rifles for different people I am starting to think is in how they hold them, shot lots of guns that friends said booted hard and didnt bother me , then shot ones they didnt mind and I hated .


the only rifle I will NOT shoot without a muzzle break now is the T3 stainless lite my brothr has in 300wm, that thing is just fugging ignorant , but my T3 wood and blued dosnt kick atall in 300wm and Chris my 14 year old shoots it more than I do :lol:


if it is unbarable Frenchy there are a few options, muzzle breaks are great but they make a rifle alot louder, good recoil pads like the pacmyer decelerator and the limbsaver do wonders and magna porting is also an option if anyone in your area can do it :D
