I shot USPSA 3 gun for about 20 yrs... the upper is a RRA mid length gas medium weight 1/8 twist barrel that shot M193 pretty much exclusively for the first 15 years... a lot of S&B with NATO circle cross head stamp would shoot 5" at 400m...it has a clamp on gas block that was not modified (reliability), an M16 bolt carrier that shrouded the firing pin and RRA bolt that had a SOCOM bolt upgrade of ejector spring and "O' ring ... I did not use the McFarland style ring as I shot cheap Wolff for local matches, and the Wolff would carbon up badly at about 100rds, and effect reliability... the stock was a Viet Nam era A1 with a rifle length buffer tube and Enidine hydraulic buffer, Hogue pistol grip, and small diameter Midwest Industries fore end...
the muzzle brake was a collaboration with a shooting friend that was an M4 project manager at SOCOM and edited the SOPMOD manual... I fully threaded the boss of the Miculek brake to delete the locking nut, and continued the minimum diameter drill bit to thread 1/2x28 through the rear wiper... we both considered that this modification made a noticeable difference is smoothing out the recoil impulse... it was clocked with shims to approximately 1:00 to control some dot shake... a 4x32 ACOG TA01 and later a TA31F was used as I liked the ability to use the stadia lines to hold for wind hold off... I managed a 12th place stage finish on the sniper range at Ft Benning in 2009, at 62 years of age, before cataract surgery....I switched to Australian Outback 69 Sierra match kings after the Ft Benning matches for Area 6, anything past 200m got the match grade ammo as my lot of S&B had run out and other M193 did not have the accuracy...
muzzle brake, rifle length buffer tube with hydraulic buffer would be my suggestions ... trial and change clocking of brake to help eliminate shake, though I did more work getting an AR9 to eliminate shake than actual recoil reduction, because I could control cartridge velocity better...
