I was going to get one from from Liveoak but I am now questioning that. He made my last one and it was basically a JEC. I’m not overly concerned about sound levels but good recoil reduction is a must. Standard threads 1” barrel. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-16103-202141-7ae2e611_a790_4b15_97cd_ee34ca65f2a5.png)

On a side note Midway rocks. Had my order of 5 items pulled and a tracking # to me within an hour. They continue to impress me with their service.

I was wrong...on anything technical. Fitz............. is right, ya know............

Nothing at all, I liked the JEC style brake he made. I was just wondering about options since I’m going to order one and install it myself.

I shot a Heathen and a Area419 brake today and both are very high quality and effective. Really liked the simplicity and quality of the Heathen. Shooting it on 6.5 SAUM and watching hits at 800-1000 yards.
Both are self timing so easy on/off to change to Suppressor

I run a zrodelta gen 1 on a 300wm. It’s not pleasant for those around. Granted the rifle is sporting a 28” AMU profile barrel and a sniper fill McMillan, but recoil is on par with a 223.

I put a APA FB on a 7 mag i built about a month ago. Recoil is less than the 6.5 Grendel i have.
Like the self timing feature. It is loud but show me one that isn't.
