Hello If you have a Contender/Encore/striker/xp100 and need a muzzle brake. I can make one for $30.00 in stainless or chrome moly. You can have it installed or I will do for an additional $30.00 Striker and xp100 barrels must be removed from the action before shipping. email or call me for more information rem40xb1@msn.com 208 587 8993 Ross
What calibers are you shooting that you want brakes? I do have a break on my Lone Eagle in 308 but would not consider putting one on anything smaller. I have handguns in 7br and 7/30 waters and do not want to ruin them with brakes.
I have installed brakes on several pistols from 6mmBR to 480 .I have had no complaints from people saying the brake ruin the pistol. It is just a matter of choice. Several shooters that shoot long range like a brake and say they are able to shoot better with less recoil. Brakes are not for everyone but some shooters really like them Ross
For an XP100 which is still in 7mm Rem benchrest. What shape and "hole design" do you use? A North Carolina outfit specializing mostly in Remington pumps and semi's claims their tubular "holes forward" brake is very effective and doesn't send side blast across your muzzle to tickle your ear drums.
I have a second XP which someone chopped into a "race gun" some twenty years ago (I'm guessing) and he not only milled some of the receiver away but drilled some 1/2" holes through the left side of the receiver. I mean with a hand drill and it shows. I will melt some appropriate metal and after building a dam will try pouring some filler into the heated receiver and finish off with filing and stoning - I hope.

I can do several hole patterns. I have shot most of the popular brakes out there and they are all loud and they all seem to work well depending on the caliber and bullet weight. I have not shot anything with tubular holes so I don't know if they reduce noise. I would say it is a good idea to use ear protection with any brake no matter what design Ross
The best performance is going to come with the most noise. Partition brakes usually perform the best, look at defensive edge and straight shot gunsmithing brakes.
Love shooting precision and long range. Big bores too!
