Does anyone have any comparison videos for the 308ARs? I have found plenty of 5.56 videos, but the 308 is a different beast. I was curious if anyone has gotten together on this subject and conducted scientific research on the different muzzle devices available. Im more interested in flash hiders, or combo flash/brakes. Brakes are more personal preference, and Im interested in functional flash hiders mainly.

I have tried 3. The OEM flash hider, the pws brake and the jp tactical. Of the 3 the JP gets it done. Almost no recoil at all.

I have a video with the pws here. No video of the JP but the JP is less recoil.

The brake was not timed correctly and I was getting a bit of left torque on ignition.

If you want the pws its for sale. The difference between the pws and jp is this. The pws has a slight bit more recoil but its a softer push and the JP has less recoil but its a harder smack if that makes sense.

The SJC is not a flash hider by any means. Just a comp. I used the battle Comp at night and it wasnt real bad but not as good as a vortex style flash hider. I have no experience with the DNTC line. I could try and video it at night and see what happens.
