Build Thread Tikka T3lite muzzle brake Recommendations.

[Baseacegoku]

So I have a Tikka chambered in 300winmag that I had @Velzey Cerakote and thread. He did a fantastic job the gun looks great and the threading is nice. However, being that I am an idiot I didnt bring along my SiCo ASR muzzlebrake that I was planning to put on the gun when I dropped it off and asked him to thread my rifle to the same pattern as a SiCo brake he might have had laying around. The thredding happened to be 1/2 x 28. Which to my chagrin is not the correct pattern for the brake I have. So I am on the search for a muzzlebrake that is a 1/2 x 28 thread but for a 30cal. All the ones I have come across are for .224. I really hope someone here can point me in the correct direction.

Good luck in your search. I'm not much help.
You might think about boring out, the one you have.
Got a drill press?

The one I have is for a 7.62 rifle. the thredding is just incorrect for the rifle.

get a 1/2x28 ASR brake and drill it out. it might be challenging finding a .308 cal brake in 1/2x28

ive had good luck with the amazon brakes drilled out. cheap so if it gets messed up youre only out $20

I hadnt considered trilling out a .223 brake. Probably because I dont have a drill press.

5/16 bit should be perfect

Adaptors will work for this. Similar to this one. Easy to make an even more low profile than this one.

I have these on my Tikka 223 & 308, but with M18 thread.
Clones to the Advanced Armament brake.
Perfect fitment, and nicely made.

To date, I've purchased 3 brakes through this seller. One Titanium, two steel.
I've had no issues with them.

Surely you know a buddy with a drill press?

I didnt even think about getting a thread adapter for it. $12.99 on amazon. hopefully problem solved.

Ditto what others have posted, drill out a 5.56 brake or like Velzey says, fit an adapter to it! Should be good to go!
If your not 100% sure on the brake you want, I recommend a Big Bubba brake!

If this is a hunting rig, you might want to look at linear brake/compensator.
Shoves more of the sound downrange instead of against your eardrums.

The goal was to put an SiCo ASR brake so I could quickly switch to my suppressor when I want.
