Yea like in reality blowing a trumpet isn't any louder than blowing the same amount of air through a straight tube.

Cut the pseudo-scientific BS, Muzzle brakes aren't just a little noisier they are a heck of a lot noisier.

I have a 475 Ruger that's ported and yes it's loud. So is my 500 S&W. So is every gun that I've ever shot with a muzzle brake. Several of which I've fired with and without the muzzle brakes installed, they were of all a heck of a lot "noisier" with the muzzle brakes installed.

Oh and not only do muzzle brakes suck because they are so stinkin noisy, they suck because they are ugly as heck on a hunting rifle.......................DJ
