im looking for a muzzle brake for my tikka t3 tactical in .223. im looking at the prusader is it any good. im just going to use it for target shooting and not hunting.

Just curious, why do you want one on a .223? You should be able to see your hits without one...

one because it makes less recoil and i know its not much to start with but i dont like any recoil cause of an accident i had and i can see the target better right after the shot. and im going to be shooting a couple 100 rds at a time. and i will be able to see the bullet vapors, i dont remember what its called.second it just adds looks to it.

The T-3 tactical in .223 with a scope mounted would produce at most 3 ftlbs of recoil.

ok thats all i really needed to know is how much recoil there is. i've never shot a .223 before.

That's hard to belive considering that you have been using guns for such a long time.

Sorry,couldn't help it.

Butting a muzzle brake on anygun with a scope is bad so I would recomind not putting one on if you have a scope.
