243 muzzle break

[H.K.Glock 007]

Is it possible to purchase a .243 or 270 with a factory muzzle break?
which manufacturerer?

How much it cost to thread a barrel for a muzzle break?

You can get a Mossberg 4x4 with a muzzlebrake in either caliber.

But why would you want a brake on a .243?

friends old lady for hunting white tail. I dunno...told him id ask the good people on CGN to help him out.

Same as above. Breaking a .243 is like sticking a govener on a Volkswagen beetle.
Is it a medical condition you need to reduce recoil for?

To thread and install a break on a rifle can run from $250-$400 depending on who does the job.

I had a shrewd varmint brake put on my .243. Total cost including installation was $200. I put it on so I could see the gophers explode in the scope. It is a very nice gun to shoot (recoils like a 22lr), but my varmint hunting buddies don't like it very much even when they are wearing hearing protection.

Remington 700 VTR has an extremely effective muzzle break.
It is available in:

• 223 Rem
• 22-250
• 243 Win
• 308 Win

I have the 243 Win model and even if the effective barrel length is 20" it is an extremely good varmint rifle as you can self-spot even thru a 24X scope!
Recoil is very low (223 Rem level) and they're is no muzzle jump.

I had a brake installed years ago on my 220 Swift and it is a real pussy cat to shot and i am not missing any action in my scope as the jump is minimal... JP.

I have an A-bolt in 243 wssm with a break.Shoots with the recoil of a 22.But has the sound of a canon.Rediculously loud.

I agreeas well, no need to put a break on a 243. I`ve installed about 20 breaks, most where on 300 wm and 338 wm. Did one 270 it was like shooting a 243 but man alive get the ear muffs on, even for the shooter.

I had one put on a 300 mag for my son. Cost $250.00 Dlask Arms in Vancouver.

Sure you can put one on a 243 but you better save up for a hearing aid. Brakes are crazy loud.

I saw a model 700 with 18'' barrel in 243 at Carp gun show that was magna-ported. I am pretty sure is was marked $500
