I picked up a nice CZ 550 today after the 30 day pawnshop hold. After talking it over with my gunsmith concerning threading the muzzle for a brake, he recommended chopping the barrel from 25.5 or so inches to 22", then threading for a muzzle device.
I've heard that anything over 22" is wasted on 308 so the recommendation seems well founded. On the other hand, I know once I shorten the barrel there is no do-over.
Should I even consider a brake? This is a seriously heavy rifle that will only be used to put holes in paper.
Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions THR.
