I have a late 90's Browning Stainless Stalker with a BOSS. I'm thinking about taking it off mainly because of noise. Recoil reduction is nice but not that important to me really. I'm good with a brake or just a solid screw on piece. I'd love to hear if anyone has had experience with this and it's effect on accuracy.
I have a Winchester 70 with the BOSS muzzle brake. It has worked for me, though you can go thru a bunch of ammo if you're not careful. Ihe brake is loud but I hunt from stands only so I wear an electronic hearing muffs. Recently I experimented with reduced velocity loads that have proved to be very accurate. So, I replaced the BOSS brake with the CR BOSS (Conventional recoil BOSS) without the ports and, as fate would have it, I use the same setting as with the BOSS brake. Good system.
