I recently purchased a titanium muzzle brake from DZ-Tactical. The reason I bought it was to use on a light weight hunting rifle for mountain hunts. This brake weighs only 2.45 ounces on my scale. I wanted to test the recoil against other brakes I had used in the past. I clamped a spring scale to the bench that would record the recoil force. What I found is that the DZ-Tactical titanium brake reduced recoil by 10 percent more than the JP rifles Large Profile muzzle break that I tested it against. The brake is made of hospital grade 5 6AL4V titanium. It appears to be a hard material that resists scratching and corrosion. The threads are 5/8x24 and it threaded perfectly on every barrel I tried it on (Proof, Tikka, Carbon 6, and JP barrels). I put some torque on the brake to get it timed correctly. I was curious if the threads in the Brake could handle some torque without damaging them. The titanium seems harder than the stainless used in the JP brake. The JP brake showed scratches and tool marks from installation/removal and the titanium brake did not. https://www.dz-tactical.com/product-category/muzzle-brake/
