I'm currently in the process of ordering parts for my grendel build but not sure what muzzle devise to use. Right now I'm looking at the vg6 gamma 65 but not sure if that's going to be a good one to use? I'll be honest all the ar's that shot have just had a birdcage so I have 0 experience with any others. Eventually I want to shoot it suppressed but not sure when or how long that will be so I don't want have to have a threaded as of yet. Just looking for some advise. Also not looking to spend more then 100-125 if I don't have to but maybe willing to if one comes highly recommended! This will mainly be coyote hunting and bench shooting rifle with an 18" barrel if that makes any difference. Thanks guys!

Not sure how to delete this but I see there is another thread very similar that is still active sorry! -
Read these guys plus the muzzle brake studies they did, 7.62, 6.5, and 6mm. Good reading. I researched these tests when I got my MBs.
I have some [edit] voodoo innovations (similar but not the same) and like them, they do real well on my Howa (20" HB). I'm using one on a 16" build also.
I also have one Impact Precision MB ($105) which also does real well on an 18" Grrr.
Lots of good choices in your price range.
Best one I use is the APA Lil B****d, but it runs about $250 or so.Last edited by grayfox; 11-10-2017, 04:21 PM."Down the floor, out the door, Go Brandon Go!!!!!"Comment

Need to edit my above and apologize b/c I had a different MB in my head, similar but not the same as the vg6.
I was actually describing the voodoo innovations Jet Comp."Down the floor, out the door, Go Brandon Go!!!!!"Comment

The VG6 is included in this comparison...
I used one on my 20" group buy build - nicely finished & seems to work well + not too loud, but I'm far from an expert.Comment

yeah the TTAG website also has some good studies."Down the floor, out the door, Go Brandon Go!!!!!"Comment

There are multiple reviews out there with different results from year to year. The one by TheTruthAboutGuns #2 liked the VG6 Gamma a lot.Last edited by PVBoom; 11-10-2017, 07:52 PM.Comment

Its what I ordered for my build (not built yet). I also looked at the Precision Armament M-41. Went with the VG6 -- lower price, lighter/smaller, good reviews.Comment

I've shot by neighbors 6.5 w/gamma and it felt about same recoil (about none felt) no blast to the face with just a bit more concussion off to the sides than the $35 strike industries J-comp II on my budget build 6.5. I was going to buy a gamma but it just didn't fit into my budget at time and I was in a time crunch so I settled and have no regrets.Last edited by Lastrites; 11-10-2017, 09:50 PM.Comment

Note that Brownells has the VG6 line on sale (and has for a little while)
Personally I want them to make the Epsilon in 6.5, that is a Gamma with some additional prongs for flash hiding.Last edited by PVBoom; 11-11-2017, 12:05 PM.Comment

IRBuff,
I have six VG6 brakes on 556, 300 Black Out and 6.5 Grendel and really like them. Almost zero rise and decreased recoil in all calibers I have.
Schuyler Arms ( http://www.schuylerarmsco.com ) has all of their VG6 brakes on sale for $40 for Veterans Day.Comment

Awesome! Thanks guys looks like that's what I'll be going with after all the good talk about them!Comment

Sticks,
I'm suffering from buyers remorse also. I stocked up on stuff pre-election that is now going for a lot less. Schuyler's is a great place to shop with fast shipping and great prices and I'm pretty sure it's owned by a Vet. All plus's in my book.Comment

Kind of off topic but do you guys ever look at Sportsman's warehouse for ammo? I'm finding they are cheating then psa on most of it plus if you are a member it's 10% cheaper yet.Comment
