Muzzle Brakes?

[Wayne Shaw]

Are muzzle brakes allowed in Heavy class now? There was an agenda item about this wasn't there?

Williamsport rule 54.1 states 'In the Heavy Gun class muzzle brakes are permitted, provided there is
no rearward discharge of gasses'.

From the IBS webpage, on the winter meeting:

Muzzle Brakes
The long range shooters voted to allow muzzle brakes the Heavy Gun class. This will allow the Light Guns (which usually have muzzle brakes) to compete in both classes. This change was supported by the Long Rang Committee and endorsed by the EBoard. This action is also consistent with several comments in the survey relative to long range competition.

Thanks Charles, I looked on the IBS page but obviously not in the right place.
