I won't whine though if someone beside me is shooting with a brake. It's a shooting range and expect you may encounter someone shooting with a brake. If you can't handle that take up golf, shoot at your own range or go to crown land.

Just ranting. I always use both plugs and muffs at the range and set up away from them as much as possible. Most breaks are not too bad but there are a few that it's no fun to be shooting beside when ones on the neighboring bench. I have a Krieger 6BR barrel that came with a muzzle break when I got my switch barrel gun, why it on a 6br is beyond me, its a heavy gun and makes no real difference in recoil as it has almost none to begin with but is just loud and annoying so I rarely use it. Will get a cut and re crown one of these days.
I wouldn't waste valuable range time to play golf though, that's crazy talk..
