Which rifle?

I'd get one of these
Products
R3E2C MUZZLE BRAKE | Brownells
QUICK DISCHARGE BRAKE | Brownells

Probably in that order. My first .300 Win Mag I had the Defensive Edge brake put on (first link) and it made it feel like shooting a .223 bolt gun.

You'll want one that can "time" the threads for the brake you get. Most brakes will need threaded too. I'd honestly take this one to a real gunsmith so they can get it positioned the correct way.

Well

Everytime I see you, you're cutting yourself with your own knives.

Have you checked out Witt Machine ?

Yes, but with continued recoil of a gun they are going to move if its just clamped. Maybe not at first, but eventually it will. I'm assuming you're talking the .30-06. I'd get one threaded so I knew it wasn't going to move.

So, when I got mine installed. The gunsmith charged me $75. The brake cost me $80. He threaded both the brake and the barrel, threads were timed so it was in the correct orientation and he even put a finish on the brake to match the barrel.

So by the brake first then take it to a GunSmith ?

Yup! Because some are threaded, some aren't, and they'll all need to be timed anyway.
