Muzzle device for precision 5.56
Hello All,
I'm in the planning stage for my first precision/longer range 5.56 rifle. I intend to build it around a 20" barrel. It will be used for recreational target shooting, and on the 0.00001% chance that the S hits the F, for longer range 'sniping' and perhaps for hunting.
My question is what sort of muzzle device should I put on it (if any). I think the traditional wisdom says muzzle break, but I've read a few good points that suggest using a flash hider. The most interesting one is that in a life or death situation, from a prone position, the muzzle break is going to throw up big clouds of dirt that will interfere with follow up shots and give away position. I would also like something that can be used with a suppressor. I have an Omega in NFA jail right now, but that thing is intended for a 300 blk SBR so I'm definitely open to devices for other suppressors.
I'd be interested in any comments or suggestions that you have.
Thanks,
JRC
