I don't use one, just thread protector.
Personal preference I know, but I don't want a muzzle device influencing the gasses/flight of the bullet in any way. I use muzzle devices on other AR's but the Grendel is for precision. Also lessens the profile and weight slightly.
If you've had experience with heavier calibres you won't notice any difference. Perhaps for target re-acquisition in a CQB environment but you have to be immersed in that scene to care about a muzzle device.
If a suppressor is going to be your eventual muzzle device then a thread protector is worth considering in the interim.
