    DPT muzzle break end cap results.

    Chucked on the dpt muzzle break end cap today and checked zero at 100 yards.
    I shot a 3 shot group with the standard end cap, then changed to the muzzle break end cap.
    Will put photo of result’s below, but my group tightened up a lot with the muzzle break on, not sure if it is due to it changing the harmonics or if its just me shooting better with the lower recoil. But it’s a big difference. Also spotting my shots out at 500 yards now which is awesome, as had no chance before. it noticeably lessons the recoil. Noise wise, i couldn't notice any difference.
    Shooting a tikka 300wsm 165gr norma ballistic tip factory ammo.

    I put one on my 300 win mag last week, made huge difference to recoil.

    I put one on my 300wsm and with a 24 inch barrel I didn't notice a difference.

    Shortened that rifle to 20 inches and tried the break, what a difference! It's nicer to shoot now than at 24 inches.

    Put one on the 7 Rem Mag and it made all the difference to the recoils. Much better.
