    I have a 35 Whelen in a pump Remington. It was a 270 and I had it reamed out and rifled. Shoots fantastic. When asked I tell them it kills from both ends.
    Please don’t give the haters much time.
    Hope to see more interesting projects.

    The only better thing would have been to touch one off without the brake and then one with. It looked like it helped a lot, but that comparison video would REALLY have shown it. My brother's 35 Whelen is unthreaded and it speaks loudly on both ends.
    Nice job of machining.

      I have a Lyman Cutts compensator on my 12 gage browning which I guess accomplishes the same thing elinating the muzzle blast and keeps a tighter shot pattern. I've never seen one on a rifle to eliminate kick. Are they made commercially ?

    " If I can find someone to pull the trigger" Aw come now it can't be that bad. I shoot a Sharps 74 in 50-90 with a 600 grain lead bullet and I am 66 years old. Not saying it don't hurt sometimes but I can handle it. At the shot you can visibly see the gasses exit out the sides of the brake and the muzzle rise was much less. I think you have suceeded in your mission to build a brake.

    Amen. I totally agree with your intro. And a very informative vid.
    I have a question about compensators vs muzzle brakes. For my next build, which will be either a 35 Whelen AI or a 30-06 AI. More so for the Whelen, I’d like to have a muzzle device where the ports are only at the 12 o’clock position. I can’t, however, find such a device, do they exist for rifles? Also, the reasons are two fold. One, I rather not have the concussive force echo into my ears or into anyone besides me. Two, I’d like to mitigate muzzle flip for a better follow up shot (If need be). Thanks for the video and any suggestions to find such a

    • @RedRheaWeldingmachining
      @RedRheaWeldingmachining  18 днів тому +1

      I started to add some small ports at the top to eliminate jump. The reason I didn't is I thought the flash coming through the ports would temporarily blind me, especially in low light situations. If so it might be difficult to make a follow-up shot. I set my ports at 30 degrees. I drew this out and seemed this was pretty close to having a "jet" effect with the ports and not blowing too close to me. I hope this helps and let me know how you come out. This one kicks about like a 20ga. with light loads.

      @ Thank you, sir for the quick and informative reply-a very smart design. While I’ve never even seen a 35 Whelen, their reputation seems very awesome. Thanks for comparison to the 20 gauge. For this build of mine, I’ll likely go with Boyd’s Spike Camp stock with its thumb hole and near vertical grip. I think that will help me better manage the recoil.
