Is it that 223/556 doesn't need a brake? I have a bolt varmit 223 and figured it can't hurt.
Thanks for the tip. Is the same thing true for using a 30cal brake on 6.5mm? Or is that just a little too much gap?Use the 6mm Lil Bastard. The difference in recoil reduction between a .24” bore versus a .26” bore in that brake design is nil.

Is there any way to put one on a barrel that isn’t threaded?
Have the barrel threaded for $75. Far better than the clamp on brakes which run the risk of eccentricity.
is that local or mail in? Our local guy is 3x that.Have the barrel threaded for $75. Far better than the clamp on brakes which run the risk of eccentricity.

well it was a quote to have a barrel cut down, and rethreaded, after tax. Still higher than a new barrel, but I have very accurate 24" AR barrel sitting unused because its too heavy. I would take my chances cutting it to 20" for $80, but not enough of an issue to go pay more. I also want it turned to a lightweight, and by then, I'm way beyond new price.Sheesh, $225 for muzzle threading is too damned much, period. Good for him if he can get it, but he ain’t getting it from me!
I put brakes on AR's I used for 3 gun, otherwise no thanks.
