What size barrel are you running?
"Stubby" flash-hider? What have you used?

I just use A2s. I rarely use anything else.

IMO barrel length matters.
The juice isn't worth the squeeze with muzzle brakes on SBR's. On anything under 14.5" I'd just stick with the A2.
Anything 14.5 or over I'd probably use the Dlask A6, It's a simply outstanding muzzle brake.

But a relatively poor flash suppressor. Try the ATRS LFE. Pretty much zero flash from a 7.5" and full compensation and made in Canada. I have them on 300 Blk and 5.56mm SBR's. I haven't found better for the size. There are comparison vids on YouTube that are quite interesting.

When it comes to flash suppression and besides the SPEX there is only one solution...
I'd argue that the AAC Blackout is just as good, potentially a stronger three prong design, can be timed so one prong is facing the 6 o'clock to reduce dust being kicked up when firing prone AND it's shorter.

Recoil mitigation becomes a lot more important when you are using "X" rounds per second as a metric for a lot of your shooting. I don't usually see that topic being discussed in the precision rifle forum...

Well said Clobb.
Me: I generally prefer to "brake" my guns rather than "break" them.

I'm using an ATR LFE on my Tavor and also have a Smith Vortex not currently mounted on anything. Both do a good job of flash suppression, the LFE is also supposed to have some muzzle control properties though I haven't shot it enough yet to have an opinion. I haven't stacked them next to an A2 but figure the length is pretty similar on both.
The LFE is manufactured in Calgary, which I like.

I think that's the Battlecomp 1.5", there's also the battlecomp 1" on OST. You could alway go with just a thread protector.
AGW linear compensator. Get it from OneShotTactical. Works really well on SBR.
Not the best for flash hiding capabilities. This is pretty much the biggest fire ball you will get. See picture above.
Will make your rifle "more quiet" and really fun to shoot. No muzzle jump either.

I just built up a 12.5" as well. When I find one, an AAC Blackout will be replacing the A2 that's currently on there.

Very nice.
If you're looking for one, I could have sworn they had some AAC brakes in the cabinet at Milarm here in Edmonton a week or so ago.
