Micro gen ll by Tim Dexter, Verified Owner, February 13, 2025
Looks great installed. I’m in the process of testing it out on my Bergara B14R trainer to see what if any kind of improvements. As of now it really improved the look of the end of the barrel. The fit and finish are great. I will follow up with more a...

It works well to a point by arturo1113, Verified Owner, February 2, 2025
It reduces recoil well. But on a 300 Win Mag shooting 200 grain bullets there is no way to adjust the break. You have to take out all 8 set screws to reduce muzzle jump. My rifle weighs 9.5 lbs and you still cant watch the target through the scope af...

Best choice for me by Rich B, Verified Owner, November 1, 2024
I have shoulder and back issues and needed a stronger cartridge than the 357 Mag rifle I have. I found a great deal on a 30-06 Model 70 sporter barrel rifle that a previous owner had threaded 1/2×28. When I was younger I had a sporterized Mauser in t...

Excellent brake by Zach, Verified Owner, October 5, 2024
Tried this brake after seeing some good things online. Needed a 9/16 thread so my choices were limited. The self timing nut makes timing simple and I like the tunable ports. Made my 30-06 feel like a .223.

Product Info for American Precision Arms Micro Bastard The Answer Muzzle Brake

At APA they are known for solving big recoil problems, not small ones. For years competitive shooters have asked us to develop a brake for the off-hand, run-and-gun, "Gas Gun" competitor. they found this little recoil problem was a little more dynamic than anticipated. they wanted to give these shooters their Bastard ports but that wasn't enough. The competitive shooter needs something really lightweight, but even more, tunable.image

We developed the U.R.P. Adjustable Gas System. These aren't just randomly placed top ports. Every port is placed adjacent to the internal Bastard tooth where there is maximum pressure build-up. This makes the adjustable ports directionally effective. ALSO because of their self-timing system the brake is cant-able.

The unique tunable gas system combined with the trademark APA ports work together to achieve a sight picture that does not move when the rifle is fired. There are 8 directional gas ports that can be tuned to counteract your U.R.P. (unique recoil profile).

There are 256 combinations to keep your sights on target. To calibrate the brake to your U.R.P., start testing with all the gas screws installed. Pay attention to the movement of your red dot, irons, or crosshairs, and begin removing the gas screws as the recoil requires.

When the gas screws are removed on the right side, the rifle will be shifted left. For the opposite effect simply remove the screws on the left. The gas holes closer to the nut have a more dramatic effect and the ports closer to the brake crown have a lesser effect. When you find your U.R.P. combination, Threadtite your screws into place.
