TonytheTiger Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Rectifire must have gotten in trouble, his post disappeared. His brake had almost no baffle surface perpendicular to the bore, so it wouldn't be a good brake, and it had no directional venting so it wouldn't be a good compensator. Perhaps it works as a flash hider? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m no expert on comps by any means but I can give a big +1 to the Seekins ATC. I’ve used the PRI comp too and liked that one as well but would give the edge to the Seekins. Both returned to the same spot after the shot but the ATC had a nice consistent rise and fall whereas the PRI was a bit more circuitous in its pah. Neither would be a bad choice.

Limited and Tactical usually have 3” long x 1” diameter for muzzle devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it would work as flash mitigator but no way in h_ll that would keep the muzzle steady. Many others have tried to come up with ideas for muzzle brake but I can say lack of engineering and validation via test data, those ideas have, and will, not gain appreciable market footing because they plainly don't work.

toeheadAR Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I know the Aero Precision VG6 doesn't reduce recoil like some of the beast muzzle breaks but I find it to be a great compromise. IMO, one of the best for its size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonytheTiger Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 That video would have been more useful if he had been shooting three paper targets with two rounds each. Shooting at the same cadence and then measuring the difference in dispersion on the paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoKimberDave Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 That's it. I'm giving up my 3gun rifle w/ brake for a shorty pistol with a birdcage. This fellas blazing times have shown me the light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said a m4 type flash hider is a mild comp unlike a birdcage that has slots all the way around. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Nice video - but - would have been more informative to show group size for each test unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dthomas1003 Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Another +1 for the Seekins ATC. I have one on my 3gun rifle and the dot barely moves and returns beautifully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 I've been running the Surefire brakes and found them more than adequate. I wasn't a big fan of the cost especially since I don't run a can so when they came out the MB only version for 1/2 the cost, I was all in. They work.

Steve RA Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 "Statistically speaking, he didn't fire enough strings/groups to create a valid sample size to prove anything at all." True, but a couple of USPSA targets at about 30yds or so would have possibly shown some difference between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJeromeE Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 For what its worth, I have been running a Strike Industries Checkmate on my 18" rifle, and it has been an awesome comp for the money. Keeps the muzzle flat and isn't nearly as punishing as some of the other comps out there. I just order the Strike King Comp for my 14.5" to be pinned. For the money, and I believe he says it in one of the comp tests on TTAG, strike industries brakes are awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that in respect to 3gun, the video doesn't prove anything at all. Except that the flash hider clearly has more recoil.

Davidp1911 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 SJC for maximum flatness but insane side blast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stick Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I have a couple of SJC Titans, my son has the Miculek on his rifle. For the price, the Miculek is pretty decent. My Titans shoot very flat but damn they are loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidp1911 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Also, dig the JP and Colts comp. Not as extreme as the SJC but effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
