Haven’t bought one in over 5 years, looking for 308 muzzle on ar10 that is good at reducing recoil for my young son to shoot.
Not concerned about control if muzzle flash.

Best muzzle brake for 308

apa little bastard or the Area 419 match are both excellent choices for recoil control.
...have had good experiences with the VG6 brakes in multiple calibers. Testing before attachment and after showed significant reduction in felt and actual recoil/muzzle jump. Like any brake, they can be loud, something to consider if one is sensitive to sound and subject to flinching as a result. VG6 products are moderately priced, go on sale frequently from many vendors.

I would maybe get one that can fit an oil can on top of it.
i put surefire socom's on 2 of my AR10's and they made a big difference over the normal flash hider type. i havent noticed any fire balls in daylight but i dont shoot these in low light either. still feels like a 308 though, just not so punishing after 3-4 mags.
muzzle blast doesnt feel any different. not like some of the 223 comps i've been around.

I am thinking of getting a APA little bastard gen 2 for mine. I have talked to people that say they reduce a 308 to 223 recoil levels.
That test is complete bullshit nothing but subjective opinion.Muzzle Brake: Summary of Field Test Results

This is a much better methodology but it still doesn't cover everything.
There is a reason all the top brakes look the same/similar.
APA, Area419, ACE , MPA. Just pick one and go shoot.
If you want lightweight, its hard to beat the SRS brakes.

It’s more of a hybrid brake/flash hider but after trying a few I liked the 2A armament x4, it noticeably reduced recoil.
Definitely the SLR BCF 30.
I just happen to have one for sale for $45 shipped too.

They all seam about the same to me. However I try not to buy them if they angle the noise back towards the firing line.
Here’s the BCF30 for reference

The Dead Air 3-chamber KeyMount Brake works great on mine. If you want even more, JMac Customs makes a Dead Air KeyMount 4-chamber version. Even if you don't plan on running a suppressor, they're still very good for a muzzle brake.
