Because I had a spare $15.75 laying around (that my wife hadn't found) I bought the "5/8x24 TPI Thread 6.5 Creedmoor Competition Muzzle Brake /w Washer" off of ebay from 'prosupplies32778'
To maximize efficiency of the brake, it should only be a few thousandths larger than the bore but Precision Shooter (I think) had said that .308 m/b's would only lose 5~10% on a 6.5mm
In this case I have a new muzzle brake to put on my 9.3x62 - a .366 bullet falls right thru :o
I'm sure it's plenty loud though so I can annoy other shooters.
This will be tested on a 18" BCA upper for schitzen giggles...
