I got this my heavy 308 (Rem 700) f-class project gun earlier in a summer from a friends friend second hand. Along the line I did some modifications to it, and now behaves pretty well @ 2-300 rings.
Winter is at the doors, tinkering now about my steps for next season long range shooting.
I would like to get a muzzle break with integral barrel tuner. (btw I am a big fan of these on my air rifles)
I fella from my club told me back in time for a machine shop - somewhere North West or North of GTA (sorry I lost those my notes), they building those guizmos specific to a gun.
Anybody can chime in with some names?
 
I'm not sure what the current fad is but when I was shooting precision rifle a well crowned muzzle was the most common thing to have on a 308 target rifle.

What muzzle brake with integral tuner do you use for air rifles. I have a FX M4 700 mm 22 cal

I have several "air strippers" as called in airgun dictionary. My favourite I am using with my FX MK2 is from eaglevisioncam (most left). Lately I saw they made many different looking units.

Also I have a FX shroud with internal stripper and integrated tuner. This one is for x700 barrel, and sometimes even with this setup I am attaching the eaglevisioncam stripper especially when shooting slugs.

Spearhead would be the folk with the good tuners. See this site's dealer list. But take a very close look at the F Class rulebook because I recall brakes are a no-no there.
 
Thanks all.
I am a believer in muzzle/air "strippers" and barrel tuners.
Training and practising @ 2-300, this only available at my club. Also just started reloading diy.
f-class is a bit far now in the calendar, but somewhere next season I wanna get ready.
If my memory serves me well the Spearhead Machining is what I was looking for. I will probably give them a visit for a custom fit machining to my barrel.
 
If you are planning on shooting Fclass in the future, get a tuner if you wish, but forget about a brake.
Learning to load and tune the rifle without a brake will pay off in money saved and lessons learned because in the end you will have to learn those things without the brake anyway.

I have a heavy 308 barrel, it is seem to me tapered down all the way to the muzzle, if I can recall last time I measured before summer.
