[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2276375, member: 116181"] I have two Omegas and a Hybrid, all direct thread on bolt actions. No need for brakes to mount them on. 1 - I never shoot them without the suppressors, 2 - the rifles all came with thread protectors for when the suppressor is taken off, 3 - I have absolutely no need for a brake on all but potentially two rifles, and those are the two that have to use TBAC brakes to mount the big 338 suppressor. The TBAC brake basically does nothing, and the ASR brakes don't look impressive in terms of functioning as a break should compared to brakes that do work: [URL unfurl="true"]https://precisionrifleblog.com/2015/07/17/muzzle-brake-recoil-reduction/[/URL] If people want to use mounts, go for it. To me the [I](SilencerCo ASR) suppressor brake mounts [/I]are long, relatively useless piece of metal permanently attached to my barrel that I don't want. You want a real brake, get a Gen 3 Bastard and put it on when you don't have the suppressor on. It's self-timing, so it's not burdensome to install if you want it. Edit: Wanted to clarify I specifically mean the ASR Brake that comes with the Omega 300. Not every suppressor brake mount across the board, but I have a half dozen of the ASR brakes so I do have an opinion about those particular ones. [/QUOTE]
