[remington jim]

Need some ideas on what BRAKE to have installed on my Rem M700 338 RUM - i do want to shoot it prone so dust and dirt blowing up are a Concern ! thks for ideas RJ

Well firstly thank the Lord that someone can spell properly ! Now to the question: I think you will have quite some luck with a Grizzly brake from Grizzly Gunworks ( simply Google that name for website as hotlinking is frowned upon ).

RJ,

What's the barrel contour on the 338 RUM?

 

[Tarrantula]

Could try ATRS they make some good stuff

I'm assuming you meant that the OP used the correct homophone brake as opposed to break? That would not be considered a spelling error.

As for a good brake, have a look at the PWS Precision Rifle Compensator supports up to 338cal. There are no ports on the underside and gasses are vented off to the side and up.

No ports on top or bottom, sides only... looks good on fat barrels..

Here's a link to American Precision Arms. This one works for a sporter contour barrel. Prophet River have them in stock.

Indeed, it was homophone to which I was referring but I suspect that finer points of the English language (or, indeed, honking great points of language ) are lost on those who use the term break instead of brake. I figure they just can't spell

I really liked my badger brake, it was very effective on my Lapua mag, never had dust or debris issues. On my police contoured barrel, I did have to turn out the brake inlet a little to get to the threads. If you don't need to do that, it's a bolt on.

I have been installing a lot of customer supplied Terminator brakes. Two fellows have about 3 each...

Dennis, do you know where they are purchasing the Terminator's from?

 

[guntech]

Probably right from Terminator... I'll ask the next time I see them...

Benchmark has some nice looking brakes but not sure if you can get them here.

Bighorn Sales would be the place to start looking. Gary is the Benchmark guy in Canada.

I bought a Defcon-1 from Grizzly Gun works, installed on a 308. Drops the recoil down to 223 levels, gasses go out to the sides and up. Canadian made so it was easy to order. IIRC it was about a month from order to delivery.

I have several Benchmark brakes all from Gary at Big Horn Sales, he is a great guy and has excellent customer service.

Don't own any brakes, but totally agree regarding Gary. I have bought a number items from Gary, and he has been nothing short of phenomenal to deal with.

 

[sask378]

Since we are speaking of Gary I'll add too that it's Benchmark for me from now on.
