    Background:

    Picked up a TRG42 in 300wm, wanted a break a little slimmer than factory, ran across the surefire line on midway, said it fit the trg42. So I waited for the in stock notice and then bought the thing.



    Well I am all ready to put it on this morning and now I read the package and it say 338 caliber. So my hole is too big, right (.030" by my quick morning math)

    Questions:

    1. Am I really going to loose any effectiveness of the break?

    2. Later if I did get a suppressor am I going to have to change out the break, because this one fits a 338 can?

    MB338SS02 is the part number.

    wrench in hand at the moment.

    factory break (which I have, also not mounted) exit diameter is .400"
    sure fire exit diameter is .345"

    The brake will work fine on a 300WM. I use one on my 300WM and my .308. When you get a can just get the 338 can. It works fine on a 300WM but is just a little longer.
     
    just to close the thread.
