Thread: 223 help

I wouldn't shoot my AR in a 3 gun comp without a muzzle break.

Tried shooting without either a suppressor or brake and the difference is a fair bit and my rifle is front heavy. Suppressor is actually worse for me than shooting without anything. And to be fair you would trash any suppressor in no time with the volume of fire on some courses.

Their is enough recoil in a .223 to make a difference in a fast course of fire.

Using a good brake speeds things up.

Exactly the reason why most built up AR's are braked. Try a double tap without one and see how difficult it is to remain on target. Would an ODL get trashed R93? They certainly get feckn hot!

Appologies. I should have stated that my suppressor would get trashed. It is well built but not as robust as some designed for the task.

I was properly advised when it was built for me to go to a couple brands that specialise in high volume suppressors if I was going to use it exclusively for 3 gun.

A lot of ROs complained about the noise of my AR during a course. So I thought a suppressor would help stop the whinging.
It did but it slowed my acquisition down way too much. I now don't use it at all. It is getting fitted to a new toy when I get home so not a complete waste of money.

They can whinge all they want about my break. It is legal and I will keep using it
