Gun and gear reviews Muzzle brakes

I have a Bergara b14 hunter 7mm rem mag, it came with a omni brake on it. I don’t feel the recoil is that bad but out of curiosity I’m wondering if people have used other muzzle brakes.

Are they worth the money ?

Do they help recoil that much better?

Does changing a muzzle brake affect accuracy at all?

Is radial , side ports or a hybrid of both best?

Would like to know peoples experiences and thoughts on it

Thanks

Would suggest you invest in a scope, bipod and rear bag in that order first before caring about a brake. They do help recoil leading to accuracy improvements but some brakes make people beside you hate your guts because of the blast.
