Reviews Summary

The AR .308 M11 Muzzle Brake receives high praise for significantly reducing recoil, making shooting more enjoyable and accessible, particularly for heavier calibers. Many users note its effectiveness in improving accuracy and follow-up shot times. However, the brake is described as quite loud and may inconvenience nearby shooters due to gas dispersion.

What Reviewers Are Saying

Recoil Reduction

85%

A majority of reviewers express immense satisfaction with the reduction in recoil, often comparing it to much lighter calibers. Users noted that it transforms the shooting experience, making heavier rifles feel as manageable as smaller ones, which is particularly beneficial for inexperienced shooters or those sensitive to recoil.

Installation Experience

70%

Many users found the installation process straightforward, especially when using the recommended washer kit. However, some faced challenges aligning washers properly, which required additional adjustments by a gunsmith in a few cases.

Noise Level

60%

The brake is frequently described as loud, drawing attention to the amount of gas expelled sideways. While some do not mind the noise, those shooting in close proximity to others noted that it can be disruptive. Reviewers generally accept the noise as a trade-off for the performance benefits.

Build Quality and Design

65%

Reviewers consistently highlight the solid construction and distinctive design of the brake. Many appreciate its aesthetics, viewing it as a robust and appealing addition to their firearms. However, the bulkiness of the brake was pointed out as a consideration for those wanting a more streamlined look.

Improved Accuracy and Follow-up Shots

75%

Users remark on the improvement in accuracy and follow-up shot speed due to reduced muzzle rise. This benefit is particularly praised among those using larger caliber firearms, enhancing overall shooting enjoyment and effectiveness.

Outstanding product

Use on my REM 700 build up target rifle, and one on my Rock River lar10 cuts recoil to zip and muzzle stays on target. Do not forget a washer set! This old 75 year old needs all the help he can get.

Awesome break

I bought this brake to tame down a savage 10t-sr 300 winn mag. What a difference, It's unbelievable! I will never buy another high-power rifle that is not threaded. I've shot boxes of ammo through this and am not the least bit sore after. I would say that the recoil is now somewhere between a 22- 250 and a 243 (i have both). I even let my wife who is under 130 lbs and had never shot a magnum rifle of any kind, shoot it twice. she didn't even notice the recoil. (She smoked a milk jug at 400 yards). Spend the money and get it you won't even look back once you fire you first shot.

Turns 300WM into soft shooting 308

Wow. That's it. Makes my Remington 700PSS 300WM shoots like an AR-10. Wow.

A Must Have!

Before mounting this on a Sig716 with a factory muzzle the gun popped & hopped. The M11 helped settle things down & made follow up shots much quicker & MORE ACCURATE. I also got the washer kit. It worked well & makes installation easy. Check the link at the bottom of the paragraph/description for the washer kit & make sure it's 5/8x24 Precision Armament kit. When I ordered mine the link went to the 1/2x28 washer kit (Brownells needs to fix that). I really like this muzzle brake, it's the best addition to the rifle next to the Geissele SSA-E trigger & the Vortex Viper with a Spuhr mount. All from Brownells!

Wow

After much research I purchased this for a Christmas gift for myself. My gunsmith installed in less than 5 minutes on my Ruger SR-762. It is loud as you might think. It also seems to reduce the .308 recoil to something less than my 30-30 maybe even less than a 5.56 but that's just my opinion. I purchased the spacers that others recommended. . I am quiet pleased. I had a hog problem.

Like shooting .223

Installed this on my DPMS 308 today and got to take it out to the range. First thing, this break looks amazing, I included some pictures to give an idea of size next to my old one, and what it looks like on the gun. Second, having fired my DPMS both with and without this break I can tell you it makes a world of difference. It felt more like shooting my friends M&P 15 than a .308. The only down side, like most people have mentioned, is the amount of gas it kicks out to the sides. Not a big deal for me, but I generally shoot at an indoor range with individual stalls. So I don't have to worry about the person next to me. That all said, I'm very happy to have spent the money on this. Makes shooting even more enjoyable.

M11 Muzzle Brake 7.62MM

Just received the Muzzle Brake today. Installation was a snap with Accu Washer kit (great idea). Fired my AR10 and could not believe the recoil reduction (at least 65-70%). Can't wait to go to the range and really see the benefits. Great product!

Absolutely amazing!!!

Having not installed any competing muzzle brake on my DPMS LR-308, I can't say it's the best. While I do have one from DPMS, I suspect I won't be installing it because of the performance I've gotten from the M11 from PA. First, those in the lanes or beside you will not be happy with the amount of heat and pressure they will get being on the side of you. It's an absolute beast, but without a doubt, will almost complete eliminate the recoil on a DPMS LR-308. I have it coupled with a JP Enterprises Silent Capture and the rifle has barely the recoil of my Bushmaster XM15-E2S. Follow up shots are nearly instant without the normal abusive bounce. Not only would I recommend it to others, I recommend it to my friends.

Recoil reduction is amazing.

I installed this on a Mosin Nagant sporter and it reduces the recoil very well. The customer liked the large brake look, so I went ahead with it.

A must have for .308 Sniper Rifles

I saw a great video from a professional and some other Home made videos. I will tell you, it is a must have and I highly recommend it. It greatly reduces felt recoil and muzzle rise. Great price and easy to install. Also buy the Precision Armament Accu-Washers, they make the job so easy.
