Expansion "chamber" before the gas exits.

I categorize your brakes as "chamber brakes", the most effective type in reducing recoil. The brake has a larger than bore, bore, where gasses expand then exit the holes. Compared to those that simply expel the jet gasses at or near bore diameter. More like directive flash hiders. The point is to nullify the jet nozzle propulsion effects of the gasses firing the bullet. High volume, lighter projectile rounds see the greatest benefit. A 7mm GNR has .223 recoil, a .338 GNR is less than a .44 Magnum, the .416 Rigby is about 7mm Rem/30-06 range. Amazing.

I'll say it out loud, your brakes far, far, outperform the Mag-na-ports, even the 4-5 port systems. I've shot them side by side. On my revolvers all the two port systems do is dirty my front sight with lead. The 4-port does reduce rifle recoil but not NEAR as much as your Reeder brakes. If there is a FPS difference I can't register one, and it's worth it.
