Opinions are welcome
Curious how the readers feel muzzle devices impact accuracy +/-
For my bolt 223, I have A1 & A2 Birdcages, VG6 Gamma brake/comp and a thread protector.
Last outing my Ruger American Predator wore the VG6 & factory polymer stock with poor results from SMK 69 (1 1/2 groups) but better results from Nosler 52 BTHP Match (1 inch or less) I had high hopes for the SMK. An observation- ES of SMK was half that of Nosler but Nosler MOA was superior
The stock was recently upgraded to a Boyd's Thumhole so i can't perform a test too verify impact of muzzle device even though it now wears a thread protector.
I have 75 Nosler 52's loaded for the next outing to test out the new boyd's stock.
The SMK 69 I'll try COAL change from previous 2.235 and a different powder. Previous loads used H335, bought some W748 to try out for Hornady 68/SMK 69 gr bullets.
The 223 has little recoil butt the brake allowed me to spot my oun shots' impact with nill movement, pretty cool.
I may put the A2 on at some time, hopefully it has no impact on accuracy.
Thoughts?
