Thread: New dpt suppressor muzzle brake

After watching the youtube clip above i ordered mine yesterday

Slung 30 rounds through my 300PRC fitted with a braked mk2 DPT magnum suppressor seriously what a pussycat to shoot, previous owner warned me it was a handful even with a suppressor (wasn't braked) he had even scoped himself a couple times.
Today's efforts were all shot prone only trigger hand on the rifle and not loaded up on the bipod, absolute dream to shoot the big boomer.
Good noise reduction, amazing recoil reduction, seriously I'd let my 12 year old daughter shoot it.
Less recoil than my old rem mag With another brand braked suppressor.
Great work @DPT
I'd happily line up and shoot another 30 or 40 or 50 rounds (if I wasn't paying for the ammo) no sore shoulder no flinch.

Oddly i seemed to shoot 1 MOA out to the right with the muzzle brake end cap on, took it off and went back to the normal end cap and was bang on target again?

I see they have brakes for the MK1 suppressor now...cant wait to get one.

Guessing here...it's pushing muzzle more from left??? But if you know it,and it's repeatable it's a non issue lol

Could also be harmonics, the brake is heavier and longer than the non braked end cap

I shot my 28 nosler at a 1000yrds 10 days ago. I had previously zeroed the rifle at 100m bang on, with the suppressor with brake.
First round was within 10cm of a clay target despite the terrible wind we had that day.
The rest of the couple of 3 shots groups I shot were in that vicinity.
Anyway after a cooling down period, one of the guys at the range wanted to test the brake.
So I set him up behind the rifle, and removed the brake , leaving the suppressor effectively with 3 baffles and a 4 th open baffle ( not recommended to do that of course , don’t do that at home)
His first round was right next to the clay he was aiming at. Once I put the brake back on he was still on the money.( at a 1000yrds)
Of course that could be a fluke and more testing needs to be done with other rifles, but that does increase my confidence in the rifle I put together and how the brake interacts with the whole system.
