Muzzle brake for a straight 1.250 barrel?

I don't know the answer to your question but drill was probably a poor word choice. He might have the ability to make different shaped holes. Then maybe they could be called ports.
 
Simply drilling ports doesn't work well however, C. Dixon doesn't just drill holes willie nillie. I'd have no problem sending my rifle to him and having him machine ports into the barrel.
