I am just about to send my Rem700 VLS to get the barrel threaded, but noticed the clamp-on feature of the Badger FTE brake. This brake is also threaded right? If so, I will get my Rem700 threaded to 5/8x24 like my other .308s
 
Re: Badger FTE Brake- Theaded Right?

yes, threaded and clamped so you can remove it and put it back on without messing up the timing of the brake.

besides the threading, a portion of the barrel will need to be turned down to fit the clamped part of the brake.
