Hi, I am a lefty looking for a multi purpose rifle. Coyotes, ground squirrel and target to 300 yds. Am very interested in 10 FLCP-K
in .223 except that I am very noise sensitive. I don't understand why they would put a muzzle brake on a .223, but anyway, my question is is it removable and how long is the barrel with the brake removed. thanks for reading. Denis from Canada
A simple solution to the noise problem is ear plugs (the scrunch up foam type) and ear muffs over them. A muzzle brake just makes it louder to the shooter.

The 223 doesn't make that big a pop to begin with but +1 on ear plugs regardless of muzzle brake. Take a look at the 10 fp tactical. 20" heavy, barrel no break. It is essentially the same thing.
300 whisper with a can ;)
So would the 223 with the brake be as loud or louder than my 243 without a brake? Being left handed I would prefer a left bolt.Quote:
