The Pendleton Dekicker muzzle break that Ken has on his rifle was the original brake on the .460's and continued on the many Japanese Howa build rifles until they were made in the US whereby the integral brake was changed to a screw off KDF style brake.

I personally like the Pendleton as it is less noisy that the current brake and achieves its goal of reducing the muzzle rise during recoil. This makes the Monte Carlo Design behave more like a classic style stock but without the pile driver effect such as you find with a Ruger Number 1 in .458.

I would much prefer to sue a Mark V in .460 than any Ruger number One in the .458's.

When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.
