Description
Six-piece 304 Stainless Steel muzzle brake CNC laser welded into a single assembly (like tubeless silencers). Comes in either a raw machined finish with raw welds (natural discolouration from welding process), or a glass bead blasted, plasma nitrided and Diamond-like Carbon coated (chemically inert matte black) finish. Both come with a 7075-T6 Aluminum jam nut finished with a glass bead blast and matte black hard coat type 3 anodize, the option of a stainless-steel glass bead blasted, plasma nitrided and Diamond-like Carbon coated (chemically inert matte black finish) 303 stainless steel tuner and a raw 18-8 stainless steel 8-32 set screw.
Fits all contoured barrels (tuner doesn’t hang over barrel like the tmb) with a standard 3/4×24 UNS 3A or 5/8×24 UNEF 3A threaded muzzle with 0.625-0.75 inches of thread engagement and .81 inch diameter shoulder or bigger. Will not fit threads that have been matched by a gunsmith to another muzzle brake’s 3/4×24 2A UNS or 5/8×24 UNEF 2A threads. (Do not do this, it limits your compatibility with other products, not just ours.)
CHAD muzzle brakes are threaded for 3/4×24 3A UNS as standard but come with a removable, threaded insert for 5/8×24 3A UNEF. (3/4×24 UNS 3A is a more appropriate thread for precision rifles. We recommend you ask your gunsmith for 3/4×24 UNS 3A for your next barrel, since you now have a muzzle brake that can run both threads).
Comes in 243 (.288), 264 (.309), 308 (.353) and .338 (.383) bore sizes and works with all short action and long action cartridges (testing is underway to see just how big we can go). Designed to have any bore size, bored out up to a maximum .338 caliber by a gunsmith if needed (.383 inches diameter). We run a minimum of 45 thousandths overbore for tolerance stacking and manufacturing clearances. 45 thou overbore results in 0.2% performance loss compared to 20 thou overbore.
1.25 inch diameter muzzle brake, totals 4.5 inches in length and adds 3.85 inches to barrel length with tuner, without tuner totals 4.1 inches in length and adds 3.45 inches to barrel length. Tuner weight 2oz and total muzzle brake weight 14.5 ounces with tuner, and 12.5 ounces without tuner.
Comes with hex tool for 8-32 set screws, mx decal grade barrel stickers, instructions and chewing gum. (Torque jam nut to 20-25 ft-lbs and tuner set screw to 18-20 in-lbs if you never want it to come loose during a match or hunt.)
Patent pending design with no nonsense lifetime warranty (we don’t warranty coatings).
