SHREWD - #3 MUZZLE BRAKE 22 CALIBER

Excellent price and quality ! I've installed many of these without a hiccup !

These muzzle brakes work great, they are easy to install and they are easy to modify to fit your gun.

I have used these brakes since Brownells started having them in stock. My customers have all been well pleased with the performance they get after installing. Minimum recoil reduction has been 30%. Some say 50%. It varies with each individual. They work. The only issue is the noise is dramaticly increased. Hearing protection would be need when shooting.

Very well made and effective brake. Machines nicely and polishes well.

I have used dozens of Shrewd Brakes and can recommend them without reservation. My most recent experience, however, shows a caution that I had not anticipated. I drilled out a brake to .30 caliber and bead blasted it in preparation for bluing. Heated up the salt bath to temperature and dipped in the brake. It would NOT take blue. It was quickly apparent that this brake, although labeled Chrome Moly, was Stainless Steel. Apparently it was mislabeled by the supplier. When I called Brownells for a replacement, I had to wait a total of 120 minutes on 4 separate calls, sometimes using the "call-me-back" option, and sometimes waiting because I was "Number 3 in the queue." I was shuttled to the "support team" a few times because apparently the person answering the phone could not make a decision to replace an item that had already been machined. FRUSTRATING!! Moral: Test the brake with a drop of cold blue before you assume it is carbon steel or stainless.
