Muzzle brake question

[Rygo24]

Hey guys. I’m building a 7prc. First time building a custom bolt action rifle and first time posting here on snipers hide. Hoping someone can help with a question. I am looking at area 419 muzzle brakes to put on my proof barrel. Area 419 doesn’t make a specific 7mm prc brake, but they are telling me that the 30 cal will fit it and not make any issues with accuracy. Does anyone have experience with this? Or any recommendations to another company that make 7prc specific muzzle brakes?

This will be an elk hunting rifle, but I also do a lot of target shooting at the range. I’ll be shooting it 1000+ yards on the range so I want don’t want to sacrifice accuracy by getting the wrong muzzle brake.

Your title should say muzzle brake, you have muzzleloader, so confusing.
The 30 cal break is good to go! It is more about barrel thread match than super tight bore match.

I think muzzle brake would be an even better choice of words.

I used a salmon river solutions tipro3 brake on my 7prc and that came in 7mm specifically. It is awesome.

That being said I also use a hellfire on my 6.5 CM and it is also amazing. You’ll be fine if you get the 30 for the 7 PRC.

I shouldn't be so pedantic but since we're picking on people for word choices

I have an ASR brake on my 7 PRC. Later, when I have the money, I can get the Silencerco Hybrid or Omega. Thing is, I have a 24 inch barrel. So, I have to be careful going around turns.

Edited for stupid spelling error.

The 419 break is great, I prefer the APA fat bastard brake

Jesus christ a 27 foot barrel what velocities are you getting? How's the balance?

I caught that as well, but didn't comment since I already failed a spelling test on this thread.

Frigging keyboard. That was supposed to be 24"
