I picked one of these up a while back and just got the 15 inch handrail installed. Really made it feel more balanced and slightly lighter.
Here is my question. What would you guys suggest for a new muzzle device? I know about the Lantecs and the VG6's. Any other recommendations out there? |

I can't vouch for the methodology (it's .223, but I would assume results with same design suppressors would be fairly applicable with like caliber), but as a pure comparison, this isn't a bad video to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sBjQjC89uA Up until quite recently the M4-72 seemed to dominate in terms of performance.
I purchased an M4-72 (https://precisionarmament.com/product/m4-72-tactical-compensator/), but apparently the Titan (http://www.larue.com/sjc-titan-compensator-308) is better by a bit. Up to this point I've been using a linear comp. At first I didn't think the rifle had much recoil, but as my 150gr loads start to reach maximum, recoil starts to get surprisingly stiff. I'm going to leave the M4-72 hand tight, and shoot it back to back against the linear comp. I'm also looking at this: http://www.indiancreekdesigninc.com/shop-online/bfd-for-58-24-or-14mm-mount for hunting and shooting around others, so that I don't need to remove the M4-72 to tame some of the effects of the brake. Same idea with this one http://atmc.us/blast-mate.html except they have one that can be setup for golf balls along with keeping the brake effects in check. |
| Love my G2! Also went with the 15" rail. Tried several devices, but best for me is this one Seekins Precision ATC Muzzle Brake .308/7.62 Compensator. It uses a knurled nut for indexing that makes it easy to take off/on for a good cleaning. Makes the already soft recoil even better. Regards |
| I would also suggest looking at a couple of new Comp/FS hybrids on the market in 30 caliber. The Wilson Q comp and the SLR Rifleworks hybrid Synergy Comp. I just got both in. the Wilson Q Comp is going to replace the A2 FH on my Rock River LAR 8 and the .300 caliber SLR Synergy Comp is going on my 16" 300 Blackout build. The fab quality on both is excellent, but I don't yet have any field experience to report. |

One of my personal favorites...the YHM .30 Cal Slant Muzzle Break...Added bonus of Tacti-Cool.
Features and Specifications: Manufacturer Number: YHM-3085-MB-A Made from quality heat treated steel Plated with Melonite QPQ (Matte Black Finish) Threaded 5/8"-24 Rated for .30 Caliber Includes Crush washer in the price MADE IN THE USA ! About $60 or so, and works well w/o breaking the bank, no pun Intended.
