    Default Not so good on a .308

    Gotta say I absolutely love my Battlecomp on my SCAR16. Excellent control without deafening people shooting next next to me.

    So when I got my Sig716 and saw it had standard flash suppressor I promptly went out and bought a .308 version for my Sig716 since I was so happy with it on my SCAR.

    Well big disappointment. It doesn't do as good a job on the 308 as it does on the .223. Where on my SCAR16 I can easily stay on target even standing and shooting at a human-sized steel target at 300 meters, I have to re-acquire the sight picture on my Sig.

    Just for grins I put my PWS from my SCAR17 on it and it actually shot better.

    Just my experience, its great on the .223 but is not so good on the .308

    Somebody else running one of my SBRs sporting a BC2. I was standing next to it on the right for this picture -- I felt bad for everyone else that had been next to me all day. But it sure made my follow-up shots so much better.


    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    Much better than a Miculek or JP brake...Remember, It's designed to be a good compromise between a brake, comp, & FH.

    I'm pretty well convinced that the BC is best on a 14.5in or longer barrel. Does it work on a shorter barrel? Sure, but not well enough to make the trade off of flash and concussion worth it to me.

    I would absolutely discourage people from using them on operational/defensive guns. Shooting that muzzle device indoors and out of cars SUCKS.

    I use it on my primary defensive carbine.

    It sucks in vehicles but its not too bad.

    I wouldnt agree with 14.5" or longer, the B.C SHINES when its on an SBR or F.A weapon.

    If it works for your purposes then drive on. The flash and concussion wasn't worth the 5 or 10 hundredths of a second I was gaining on split times. I didn't/don't even want to imagine having to deal with it during a protracted engagement in hallways and rooms. I want to be able to hear when I get old.

    I completely agree it works well on a full auto gun. But since I believe in being accountable for every round that leaves my muzzle I have never put a carbine on auto in a fight. I completely disagree that it shines on an SBR but again, if it's working for your purposes...
