Awesome performance! - MDT Comp Muzzle Brake

Written on March 21, 2024
I've always used muzzle brakes (MB/MBs) to increase accuracy, reduce recoil and allow for faster follow-ups. I replaced all but one A2 'flashhider' over the years (left one on a 22lr which came with it pinned), and much data and tests have become available in the last 5 (or so) validating my choices. One such was the VG-6 Gamma (2 chamber) I used on my Savage bolt-action 223 (and other rifles). I always saw smaller groups and felt less recoil compared to "no MB" but several sled, pendulum and sophisticated "total impulse" tests of late have validated that the VG6 Gamma as a good MB. These tests also indicated that this MDT Comp Muzzle Brake was slightly better... thus, I gave it a try. Without a doubt, it IS better at recoil mitigation but it not only shrank group sizes of my Savage 223, it also makes it easier to maintain groups/avoid fliers! YMMV but you can't lose with either...
Pros:
Good recoil and muzzle rise reduction.
Cons:
A little pricey unless on sale (all good MBs are $$$, though).
Would Recommend:
Yes
