Muzzle brake timing for offset red dot.

[thegeneric]

Do to certain shoulder injuries and just general preference, I use my offset mini red dot as my primary optic, with traditional fixed irons as my back up sights.

 

Would you guys time the muzzle brake to the offset red dot? 

 

Thanks for the help.

Only way to know is to test it on paper against the clock.

I don’t, and would not recommend.  With a good brake you’re not going to get a whole lot of movement at close range.  I want the smoothest recoil for when I’m shooting long range to help spot impacts/misses.  You will also run into problems when you have to go prone in the dirt.

Thanks for the thoughts, I've decided against doing so.

If you're using the offset as your primary, I'd say go ahead.

Might be worth trying one way or another.
