Sound like wobbled disc to me , you can check it with dial gauge , most garages can do that for you wont cost you much.
Hope that helps.

You don't really give much info on the problem apart from you can feel it under braking.....

Feel what ?

Is it pulling to one side or vibration through the steering wheel ?

My crystal ball is cloudy so you'll have to give us more info wink

My crystal ball is telling me sticky caliper piston, but also a hint of sticking pads or warped discs.
