[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 986995, member: 229"] Not all breaks cause noise/blast rearward. And some folks have sensitive shoulders (I've posted a pic of mine in the past - lots of scarring, very little un-cut areas on upper part of my right arm). Its not always about the latest gadgets - sometimes there's a need and that need is best filled with something someone besides the OEM manufacturer makes. Remington makes their own rifles, but do a piss-poor job at it (especially modern-day versions) - its not like they make as good a barrel as Broughton, Hart, etc... Its not like they make as good a trigger as Jewell, Timney, Rifle Basix (anymore), etc... Its not like they put stocks worth a damn on their rifles. If you're shooting more than just 100 yard groups or hunting with them, then some of these things matter (a lot) and little things that affect accuracy are a bit more important. Recoil sensitivity to a .308 is probably best dealt with by way of training and proper technique, but that's not always the case - I'm over my recoil sensitivity because its been more than a few years since my surgery, but for a good year or so, I was almost unable to handle even slight amounts of recoil. I'm not disagreeing with the spirit of what LDP posted, but that's not necessarily always the case. [/QUOTE]
