The only thing we’re slightly concerned about is the tool steel finish, but as long as you don’t leave your muzzle brake in a bucket of water after sanding off the finish, you should be just fine for many years to come.

In this case, we want the muzzle to stay put, so the four ounces of steel on the end of the barrel will help keep it down when recoil wants to move it up. Think back to school, where we learned about our friend Mr. The more weight you can put on the end of the muzzle, the more weight the recoil has to move. Of course, redirecting spent gas in a way that counters the mass and velocity of a bullet leaving the barrel always helps with control. Normally, weight is something we try to reduce in guns, but when it comes to reducing muzzle climb and felt recoil the additional weight of a quality brake can increase rifle balance.

Installation couldn’t be easier, all you have to do is torque it down to spec with the included crush washer. 308 brake is designed from the ground up to reduce muzzle flip, which is the primary issue with the fast firing of.

In the suppressor market, very few come close to the quality of Silencerco. These days, suppressors are all the rage, especially among long-range shooters who use them to save their ears and improve recoil reduction. 308 rifle and wants to minimize muzzle movement. That said, this is a go-to brake for anyone who plans on running an unsuppressed. While we think that the overall quality, ease of installation/pinning & welding, and significant recoil management more than offset this shortcoming, it would have been nice to have that option. One oversight with this otherwise fantastic brake is the inability to mount one of Surefire’s excellent suppressors.
