Witt Machine makes an inexpensive brake that I used on my 30-06 (clamp on style). It was very effective if a little bit bulky. They make a thread on version also:

I just ordered a brake from mountain tactical for my -06 since I was having the barrel threaded anyway.
There is a fella on accurate shooter forum that has done some good testing on the brakes he sells user name IdahoCTD here is his page:http://www.muzzlebrakesandmore.com/Home_Page.php
Very good prices on his brakes if I recall.I mention these other manufactures in case you want a directional brake rather than the radial one MT offers.
Thanks for the links. The Witt machines are the same price as the muzzlebrakesandmore so I think I'll contact that member and order one as I've read good reviews on his stuff. It looks like I'll need to have a gunsmith install it though unless I invest in a vise as all the install videos I've watched show that it's needed.
