My light mountain rifle in .308 has one and doesn't kick at all. The real downside is any shot fired without ear protection is unwise. You can't always protect your ears when hunting. Removing it will affect both accuracy and point of impact. I sometimes think of removing it but without the recoil I'm shooting it well and that is a tough thing to mess with.
