My new Savage Elite is my first rifle using a Muzzle Brake. After browsing YouTube videos on removal/cleaning of Brakes, I am still unsure on how to remove the device. If there are any fellow Elite Precision owners who have been able to remove/replace the brake and can pass along any info on doing so, I would appreciate. The rifle spec sheet does state it is a self timed unit. The manual supplied is not specifically for this model rifle and so the schematics show a brake using a crush washer, which I believe is not what is installed on the Elite.
My call into Savage Tech support did not fear well as I learned that the device is a third party unit, the manufacturer could not be revealed to me, and I could take it to a gunsmith to have it removed. TIA.
