kennyazman Report post Posted July 17, 2017 I bought a muzzle brake for my ruger american predator. This rifle has a threaded barrel that makes it easy to just screw the brake on. However the brake did not screw all the way down all the threads leaving about 1/4" of threads before the brake bottomed out. It is definitely screwed down as tight as it will go. Will this be a problem when the gun is fired? Wondering if any of you guys with this same rifle have run into this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted July 17, 2017 The brake didn't come with a backer nut? Shouldn't be a problem either way but you could put one on to cover the threads if it bothers you 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HyNoon Report post Posted July 17, 2017 Plus one on back locking nut? That should of taken up the gap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eastvalleyjerry Report post Posted March 30, 2018 I had a quick question. Which muzzle brake did you use and do you like it. I've been looking for a muzzle brake for my Ruger American Predator, but I'm not finding a lot of information. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost85 Report post Posted March 30, 2018 I used a Miculek ar10 brake on my 6.5 creedmore. Cheap and seems to work very well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azhamill Report post Posted April 1, 2018 I put quattromax brakes on all the predators I build. Made by Dean Maisy out of New Zealand, all made to the spec of the predator barrel. Thats the reason yours wont thread all the way to the barrel shoulder the brake needs a shank before the threads Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
