[QUOTE="hawlejr, post: 2551645, member: 86290"] I have the same Sako M995 rifle in .338 Lapua. I also have a .338-378 Weatherby Accumark with a muzzle break. I had a local gunsmith thread the Sako to take the Weatherby brake, and it works fine. My thinking was that I only needed one of those rifles at a time and it is very simple to screw it on one or the other. Incidently, I have a 30-378 Weatherby as well, and the threads on that muzzle brake are the same. I could just screw the wrong brake on the barrel and have a serious situation on my hands. Not worried about me, but the potential exists if I pass the collection on someday. I have seen a shooter at the range I frequent blow up a .30 cal brake which was installed on a .338 Lapua. Brand new rifle first shot ( You wouldn't expect to get 2!!). Dangerous but he luckily got away with it. [/QUOTE]
