The G2 Heathen was developed with the competition and long range shooter in mind. With the time-proven success of the original Heathen Brake Design we have made changes to further improve performance in competition and large magnum rifle applications.
The design goal of the Original Heathen succeeded to provide optimal recoil reduction, reduced ground disturbance, decreased muzzle jump and blast directed back at the shooter. We have taken the design of the G2 a step further with the following features compared to our original 5-Port 1.125" Heathen Brake:
50% increase in 1st port volume
24 degree increase in upward angle cut-out of port window to reduce muzzle rise
12% increase in "floor" or bride area on the bottom of the brake to reduce blast downward causing ground and debris disturbance
Front wall of the 1st port is angled at 22 degrees to direct gasses slightly upward reducing muzzle rise while still maintaining a shielded area to avoid direct disturbance of the shooters line of sight and ability to see "trace."
An included removable Brass Tuner that can be adjusted with the same principle as a traditional "tuner." The concept of tuning the barrel harmonics is a proven concept and now an integral part of the G2.
With the tuner installed, the total weight of the brake is 9.5OZ! - ONLY 1/2 OUNCE MORE THAN OUR ORIGINAL 5-PORT 1.125 HEATHEN

Any plans for 1/2-28 .224 cal version?

No not likely
To accommodate a tuner in the g2 design the diameter of.the brake is approx 1inch....on most .224 cal barrels this is huge and aesthetically unappealing. We do many precision rifles with the g2 but the larger barrels allow a 5/8 or 2/4 x24 thread
 
Does the tuner brake come with a wrench to install on the barrel? Sorry never seen a Heathen IRL.
 
The self timing nut in generally sufficient hand tight - Firm/ hard grip
We use a strap wrench if there is any concern of it loosening
