reduces a heck of amount of felt recoil

It looks great. It actually looks more like a flash suppressor. Does it really produce less felt recoil? How does it do that?

How much recoil can there be?
I don't even use a break on anything PB less than 300 winmag. I can't see an airgun making only hundreds of foot pounds having much recoil.

It cancels out a large amount of the backward recoil movement of the rifle when the high pressure air hits the muzzle break it pushes the rifle forwards slowing the recoil motion backwards. In the video you can clearly see the blast of air been diverted sideways but the air is pushing the rifle in the opposite direction away from the shooter

You would see and feel the recoil if you had to shoot an Airforce Texan . Its not a 300 winmag but as far as pcps go it kicks

My Texan kicks harder shooting 350+grain slugs than my 410 shotgun.. Recoil in pcp's effect accuracy much more than a pb going 2,300 - 3,000 fps. So a muzzle break that helps with recoil should aid in a little better accuracy when it comes to big bores as the slugs are in the barrel much longer than a powder burners bullet
