Muzzle Brake or Comp for .308 Bolt Action

[bignic83 0]

Any thoughts on a good muzzle brake or comp for my .308 bolt action rifle? It has a 20" threaded barrel. Looking to calm down the barrel rise a little. Thanks.

I have the PWS PRC. My buddy who is a sniper said its great for recoil but good luck having someone to spot you. It's LOUD.

Great with muzzle rise

Thanks for the help guys.  Was stuck between the Surefire SFMB-762 and the PWS-PRC.  I decided to try the PWS. Don't think i will ever need a can for my .308, so that cancelled out the Surefire for the higher price. Looking forward to mounting it and shooting.

Just for the record- you can get a combination device from AAC called the Brakeout - it's a single chamber muzzle brake with 4 shorter-than-normal flash hider prongs.

 

I have a custom Remington 700 that is based off the AAC-SD .308 model.  I already have between $2500 and $3000 in it, and I have yet to buy the damned Brakeout but I want it.  I had the money for it 10 times and it was out of stock almost all year last year.  Whenever it comes in stock, I have something more pressing to drop $100 on or I simply can't spend it.  But it's a pretty cool device.  Probably not the absolute best recoil and climb reducing device nor the most flash hiding but pretty cool combo piece.

Thanks for the info. I mounted the PWS today, gonna test it on Saturday. It was cheap enough that if I don't like it I can sell it or save it for my next project. I have read all good revues though.
