Yup, it would help big time.
One thing about long range hunting , the more recoil you have the les accurate you are.
Braks and good pads go a long way to eleviate this problem.
On lighter guns it is not so much a problem - the problem with lighter calibers is tha amount of residual energy once you get out there.
A 308 Winchestr is NOT a long range (past 400) cartridge that leaves any margin of error at all, so I do not recommend it.
The big ones that I do , need breaks to be shot effectivle at long range .
if they did not help, the true long range rifles wild not be made with them
