[Curnow26]

Trying to decide between the two. Rifel is my m24 build. Rem 700 22" krieger mtu barrel .96 muzzle. are there any benifits to the removal capabilities of the rad other than removel for cleaning? I wont be getting a can for a while. It is not a plan right now.
Which would you use. They are both nice the rad costs twics what the badger does.

Someone might be able to answer this in conjunction with your question.. How easily removable, and then re-installable, is the Badger Thruster?

I have two badger thrusters. One is a 308 and the other is a 260. It works great. It also removes easy to me depending on how tight u tighten it down.

I have a Badger Thruster and a RAD brake, both are very effective brakes.

I've taken the Thruster off twice in 800rds using a strap wrench, once to clean and once to try a buddies can. No big deal taking it off.

Paid a little less to have the RAD brake installed since it didn't need to be timed.

Thanks Sledge and Kevin for the replies about ease of ability on removal of the Thruster, thats the brake i Really want on the 260 i am about to order, but need to be able to remove it for matches (no brake rule at all my clubs for matches).

Thanks for the help guys. Is the thruster easy return in the same place when reinstalling it?

I've taken mine on and off several times with no issues. Just use some paint or a Sharpie to make some index lines (also known as torque striping) so when you put it back on you know how much to torque it down so it's indexed properly and everything lines back up.
