Hellfire vs sidewinder on 300 mag

[glock63]

Is there a significant advantage to the area 419 sidewinder vs the hellfire on a 300 mag? I have a suppressor adapter for the hellfire, and wouldn't mind sticking with it on the .300 mag if performance of the smaller 3 port brake is adequate.

i have the hellfire on a 300wsm and can't imagine anything being that much more effective.

I just put the Hellfire on a 300WM build I just did and it works fine. If you want to be safe, you could just by the match Hellfire version.

I was told by area 419 that at the short magnum point the sidewinder starts working better between the two.
It does one hell of a job taming down my 338 edge

I’m sure the hellfire still helps a 300 considerably and since you want to maintain compatibility I’d probably go with the hellfire without complaints.

Since you already have the adapter for Hellfire, check out the Hellfire Match.

I've ran both on a 300wm and IMO I liked the performance of the sidewinder better. I eventually switched back to the Hellfire due to mostly supressed shooting. If I were not swapping a can around I would stick with the sidewinder. As a side note, when I reached out to A419 to ask if it would be worth running the Hellfire Match vs the regular Hellfire on a 300wm since they use the same adapter, I was told "Go with the Match, it's really really good."

Thanks gentlemen. I didn't know of the existence of the hellfire match. Looks like the way to go to me.
