GiGi will certainly be getting one when her new 243 LBC barrel arrives.

The 556 Epsilon I have on a 223 makes all other comps pikers.

That's the Gamma. Like comparing a V-dub to a Porsche. At least in 5.56.

Looks nice.
Don't forget to give us a feild trail on it.
Going to be hard to beat the m4-72 severe duty I been using that thing keeps a rifle flat like crazy.

If you say so. Have seen the reviews not much difference.

They are saying this is a redesign for this caliber. I plan on getting a few but will wait for sales, little rich right now since it is so new!

Gamma is the pure compensator/brake. The Epsilon is basically the same design, plus flash-hiding tines on the end.
I have a Gamma on my Grendel and the Epsilon on my 5.56. Both are very effective & very loud.

The Epsilon adds a lot more than flash hiding tines. I've run both in 5.56 and my sight picture barely moves with the Epsilon. The BCG's return to battery causes the majority of my sight picture movement with a 20" RLGS, AGB, full mass carrier and lightweight buffers/spring.
Of course it remains to be seen if they get the same improvement with the 6.5 Epsilon.

+1 on the loud you won't forget more than once to put ears on under a tin cover.

Rainier now has them so they're hitting the distribution channels. I'd be on it now but since the county commissioners say me no allowed to shootie, I might as well wait for Arm or Ally or Granite Ridge to get them.
