I have an AR-10 in .260Rem with a silencer that I have been using in local PRS matches. However, despite working with the SLR adjustable gas block and the weight of the buffer assembly, I have been unable to fix the ejection problem; sometimes it works and sometimes, usually in a match, it doesn't.
So for the coming season, I plan to switch to either a linear comp or a standard brake. I would prefer to avoid blasting the other shooters, either at a match or on the range.
My understanding is that a linear comp is as loud as a brake and does not really work well as a brake, but it at least avoids the side blast. Is this correct, and do all of them work equally well?
If this is not correct, I'll go with a brake, not that the .260Rem recoil is bad.
Thank you, Richard
