I just got my SS Striker 7mm08 back from Holland's Shooters Supply. They installed one of their QD muzzle brakes on my factory barrel.



I can't wait to give it a try. 30+ years of playing in the dirt behind the plate have taken a toll on my hands and wrists. I liked shooting it before, but after 5 or 6 rounds I was ready to quit. Hopefully this will make it more fun to shoot!

Nice Rig... I've 40+ years sitting behind a different type of plate and it has taken its toll on me elsewhere. Gotta go, supper is waiting...

Wow Chief, you must look like DanB? I've been hiding behind the same plate -only catching all the leftovers!

Katcher, I guess its stock desing because I have without a brake but I'm still using that thing I refer to as a plastic club but they call a stock. I never thought the recoil was too bad. Its amazing how differently each of percieve recoil. That's why I always cringe when people ask if it recoils. My perception of recoil is very different from others, as yours, and dans, etc. I've seen DanB shoot my Rigby (that is very substantial) and shoot it very well shot after shot. I can only do a dozen or so and I have to take a break before I shoot something else for accuracy. You have a Nice rig though! maybe I'll brake mine now. I love the Holland brake!
