this is mainly about a flash hider i am interested in.  i have a 16 inch noveske n4 chrome lined barrel and am trying to decide on a flash hider for it.

the one i am really liking the looks of is the aac spr/m4.

couple of questions about the above flash hider:
1. is it tuned like a regular a2 where you have to use a crush washer and line it up a certain way, or is it like a vortex where you just screw it on and you are g2g?
2. i understand that this flash hider slips down over the barrel a few inches.  is there a certain barrel size that it is made to slip over...say like the m4 profile barrel?  im wondering if the noveske barrel is of the correct outer diameter for it to slip over?

and a general flash hider question...does any of them have any effect on accuracy?  i was reading on here somewhere that a guy put a yankee hill, iirc, hider on his rifle and lost accuracy, and then switched back to a standard a2 and the accuracy came back.  just wondering if different designs play any part on how well the rifle groups.

thanks in advance

i found the aac muzzle brake to group better than the aac blackout flash hider unsuppressed. this was just an observation. not  scientific in any way. 16 inch ss 1in8 wylde chamber shooting 69 grain black hills 223 in the red box at 100 yards.
