Muzzle brake threads on proof barrel

What one of their brakes would you recommend for the proof in 28 nosler?

Either a 4 or 5 port. I have a 5 port on my 338 edge and it controls recoil and muzzle rise very well.

That's a good looking rifle. What scope? Mines gonna be in a game warden with 26" proof cf 1-8.44". Trigger tech on a rem 700. Haven't figured out what scope I want.

Burris XTR II 5X25-50 SCR-MOA A great scope but a bit heavy.

Here is a Proof Sendaro light with 5/8 24 thread. Ends up a perfect fit with good shoulder contact.

Sendero profile, 5/8-24 or 3/4 thread, Sendero lite, go with 5/8-24. Here is a sendero type profile with a T3 on a .338 Norma.

And here is a MBM Lil Beas 3 port on an .820 diameter muzzle, turned down to profile. On a Carbon barrel, the lil beast 4 or 5 port would be perfect, depending on where you put your muzzle and it's diameter, you may need to step up to the standard beast brake. MBM brakes are also offered in titanium as well, and much cheaper than others. I payed like $150 for my 5 port beast titanium on my 9 lb 1 oz .338 Norma, sending 300 Bergers at 2700 fps recoil is about like a 12 lb .308 win.

7 mag and will do 1/2x28 for that one.

1/2-28 is for .22 cals. I've threaded a few 6 mm barrels for that so they could use my .556 Lane suppressor but there's little meat left on the barrel. I've gone to 5/8-24 on everything except .22 now.

You might consider a titanium side port brake from Christensen Arms.

Titanium Side-Baffle Brake - Christensen Arms

Specifications Titanium 5/8 x 24 thread pitch Weight: 1.6 oz .30 cal / 2 oz .338 Includes crush washer for proper indexing Made to fit a .920 bull barrel diameter

I have the Terminator, Baby Beast and the Christensen Arms on my rifles. I like the Terminator for SS # 3&4 barrels and the Titaniun side port brake from Christensen for Carbon Fiber barrels. The ports on both are very similar. The other advantage of the Ti version is limit weight on the end of the barrel.

You should run a 3/4 x 24 thread on the Proof Sendero Contour.

The 1/2 x 28 on the T1 is a great combination on the T3x 7RM

Thats a Hawkins muzzle brake on a 6.5-284 custom build, I wanted a smaller brake for a lighter mountain rifle.

I put an area419 sidewinder brake on my proof barreled 7mm

I've got 3 Area419 brakes..........the Hellfire. They are awesome. I also have an APA Microbastard brake which is very good too.
I'm pretty sure all the Proof barrels are prethreaded for 5/8x24 tpi............at least that's why Sendero contours are

Mine was cut for 3/4x24tpi threads. No point removing more barrel material than necessary
