Limited to these options based on threading (9/16) Suppressed also not an option. I have a APA micro bastard gen 3. Tames muzzle flip but sends a lot of blast and concussion back at the shooter. Is the the PVA Backcountry or Jetblast a big improvement in concussion blast at shooter? Or pretty much the same
APA vs PVA Backcountry/Jetblast brakes

I have a mini bastard Gen 3 on my hunting 6.5 creed and an ultralight jetblast on my 300 wsm. I always shoot with ears on when shooting them, and I don’t notice a significant shooter blast difference. I feel like the jetblast does well enough on my 300wsm for hunting purposes. If you’re looking for the most possible recoil reduction, the bastard line is probably better
I have 4 JetBlast brakes because they dont have the same concussive blast that the APA brakes do. They prob dont kill the recoil as well but I'll take 90% of the recoil reduction to not have to deal with the concussion.
The Jet Blast and Jet 4 are great at not sending blast back at the shooter and they are also very good brakes. I have quite a few of them.
Been mostly using Insite Original Heathen but on this build I'm going to try a 6mm 3 port Jet Blast on a 18in 22 creed, hoping to reduce recoil a tad while not beating up the shooter since my wife and kid will also be using that rifle.
