Perfect Fit, Everything I wanted! |
| Bought a cheaper one from MidwayUSA and didn’t like it, it was HUGE. Seen this one and it matches my brake on my Go Wild edition 308. I put this one on my American Predator 6.5 Creedmore. Love it! |

Impressed |
| My wife bought this for me for my 18 inch stainless steel Scout and I installed it because she bought it without having too much opinion about it. I have to say that I am very impressed with the performance of this brake. It changed my mind and I am now a big fan. If you have a Scout rifle this will surprise you at how much it reduces the recoil. I felt a very slight concussion from it when firing at an indoor range but nothing outdoors. It is worth the money. |

Amazing Brake!!! |
| I absolutely love this brake!!! It was very difficult to find a basic, simple, non-tacticool brake for my hunting rifle...at least one that is reasonably priced. I put this brake on a Thompson Center Compass in 300 win mag. The recoil is about the same as my Compass in 7mm-08. There is increased muzzle blast, which is to be expected. However, it is much less than other brakes Ive used. The $30 AR Stoner brake from Midway worked the same as this Ruger brake, but the blast shook the fillings out of my teeth. This Ruger brake is very mild in comparison. All I can say is buy this brake, you will not be disappointed. |

Nicely Small |
| It was hard for me to tell from the photo how large this muzzle brake is. I was pleased to see that it is very compact, smaller than the flash hider that came on the rifle, measuring about 13/16 inches in diameter by 1 3/4 inches long. My impression is that the recoil is reduced about 50%, which is very nice. The noise is less than I expected but certainly louder than with the flash hider. As one of the other reviewers wrote, the finish does not match the barrel but it does not look at all bad to me. Overall, it works well and is small enough to maintain the scout rifle character. I think Ruger got it right with this one. |

Recoil reduction at a price |
| Great recoil reduction, really tuned my groups down as well, but the blast is enough to be felt in your sinuses. I made the life changing mistake of pulling the trigger on a caribou without ear protection on that rung my bell and left me with ringing ears for a couple of days. Reduced recoil is great, but not at a slap in the face every time you pull the trigger price. |

Easy install, painless shooting |
| I really like my Gunsite Scout .308, but boy did it leave me sore after a few dozen rounds. I decided to try this muzzle brake even though the first review I read didnt sound all that great. I used a #60 torx and jury rigged clamp to remove the flash hider, and screwed the brake on and only torqued it about 50 lb/ft.
I took it to the range this morning and WOW! what a difference in recoil. I wish I had brought more ammo to play with. The recoil was a gentle shove, like a .223 or a 30-30, not the sharp kick of the stock 308 rifle. Definitely a good addition to a good gun. |

Doesnt match |
| I installed this muzzle brake on my Scout rifle; the installation was very easy. The recoil reduction was noticeable, as advertised; the increase in muzzle blast was also noticeable. But, the muzzle brake is blued. The barrel of the rifle is parkerized. This is no big deal except it shows that Ruger is not paying attention to detail. In general, the brake is too expensive not to match the barrel. |
