Thinking About A Muzzle Brake - 01/22/16 02:58 AM
Subject says it all. 300 Win Mag. Barrel is not threaded. I would need a gunsmith to install.
What do I need to consider? I guess I need to know barrel diameter? Do I buy one on my own and provide to whichever gunsmith I choose? Simply contact a gunsmith and have them take care of getting what I want if they don't have it? If buying on my own how do I know which threading to select? I suppose that doesn't matter so long as the gunsmith knows what the threading is (which I'm sure they can easily determine on their own - they don't need me to tell them)?
Now that details are sorted out what is your opinion of best performing (muzzle rise vs recoil management) brands and models? American Precision Arms, Alamo, Holland, JEC, and JP seem to have better performing models.
School me please. I think I'm making this harder than it is.
Thanks - Mickey
