Can I get Gunsmith install a Muzzle break on my Axis rifle, if so what would be cost.
Just curious, cause this rifle has such a bad kick, and would hope that would stop kick little.

Sporter barrels typically have a muzzle diameter somewhere between 0.560" and 0.590" which is typically too small to thread for most all calibers. I know some guys here have put clamp-on breaks on their sporter barreled rifles with good success, so that may be an option for you.

You could consider a clamp on brake from Witt Machine or Kahntrol.
Thanks, with in mind, I just did a search and found this website, which carry's bolt on Muzzle Brake.
I now have to look into research it.

I ordered Muzzle Brake from the website above, might add, fast delivery, and just installed it today.
Going to rifle range Wednesday to check it out, I might add the 270 Win has kick, the website showing it be used with 308, and decreased condensable!
Will let you know since that's probably going to be last time I'll be at shooting range in some time, have cataract surgery next week on the eye's along with laser so I won't need glasses any longer.
Looking forward to it, I can see again.

Holy crap that thing's huge! Be interesting how your rifle shoots because the barrel harmonics are going to be way different now with that boat anchor out there on the end.

That made me laugh. I was scrolling down to post the same thing verbatim.Originally Posted by J.Baker
The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
They may be able tho thread it as is, If not ou could always have the gunsmith take a few inches off the barrel length and then thread it once he gets down to the meat of the barrel.
I had this one taken all the way down to 16" and threaded a while back and love the way it handles. The resulting carbine has become one of my favorite rifles. Barrels too short blah blah blah. None of the targets or deer seem to complain.
