    Smile muzzle brakes ?

    i shoot with a 7mm prc . the rifle shoots well enough and i have a Hardy suppressor onboard, because I'm soft .
    However the suppressor doesn,t stop barrell jump and i loose the sight picture each time .
    So, i am thinking maybe i need a brake instead ? Something thats designed to purposefully reduce recoil ( cause I,m soft ) and barrell jump .
    Or a different suppressor thats known to control muzzel jump .
    Opinions appreciated on above .

    However , i hear that "blast" that comes of brakes is going to piss everyone off to the left and right of me ? true/ not true ?
    And brakes can effect accurracy ?
    Observations on the above appreciated

    One last thing ... who believes that suppression ( of the sound of the round discharging ) on a supersonic round such as the 7mm prc , actually works well enough that deer in a mob are confused so as to not to scarper and you get to pick them off ? Personally , i have never ( ever ) seen that . Maybe a hind , and a yearly or maybe lost animals and mates with ear tags, will stand long enough . never seen anything like the animals being bewitched because i had a suppressor on .
    opinions / observations appreciated

    Those who no best , please recommend a muzzle brake that works as i need and those that also know same would be great for a suppressor .
    cheers
