[QUOTE="Broz, post: 605098, member: 7503"] Putting a brake on can be easy. But also is a tedioud job when done correctly. Mine will only be done by a mith I trust. If the brake is installed properly it will align to the perfect clocked position when just snugged up. I never want a brake that has to be tightened hard to be in position. I have seen the results. If you over tighten the brake , the fine threads will mechanically apply pressure to the barrel tube and make a tight spot in the rifling toward the end of your muzzle and it will gather copper. This pressure or tight spot can change everytime you emove or replace the brake with the tight ones. Believe me it does not take much. This is why (as listed in #4 in previous post) I prefer to leave the brake on as much as possible. The JP allows for cleaning the crown and removing it often is not necessary. Jeff [/QUOTE]
