Hi I am new to this but have a question. The model 10 BA stealth in 6.5 creedmoor came with a muzzle brake but no nut ring thingy to keep it straight. I have same model in .338 and I see the ring nut behind the brake.
I contacted savage via online support and no response. Instead I would like to simply buy the nut and be done with it even though they owe me one. Any idea actual name of part and if someone could post a link to buy that would be a tremendous help. Thank you and happy shooting!!!
Hi I took a pic. On the left is 338 the right is 6.5 with missing washer
yes it has a conical shape to it. Any idea where I buy? I did a gun parts list search with model. Maybe I am oversearching with too many words?
ok don’t know how to post photo it’s on my phone no option for iPhone

That's probably the same but just do a search for anti crush washer 6.5CM

I believe 6.5cm and 308 usually have same thread size on muzzle, not always... may not hurt to check with savage and asked them muzzle thread size.. that's really what most important is to get washer that slips snugly over correct thread size but If I remember correctly the cm I build and ar10 308 both used identical anti crush washers.. i didnt use breaks but used flash hides but the washer is the same

Ted thank you I will check that site out.
Appreciate the help!!
No problem, hope it helps:) here is another sight that sell breaks, washers etc... didnt look it over very well but I think it has what you may be looking for as well.

Awesome thank you again Ted!
Yes, 5/8-24 is what you want for 6.5mm. I have a bunch of them. If you PM me, I can drop one in an envelope for you.
If looks are not a problem, a jam nut is another solution. A person can clock the brake exactly where you want it (fine tune if necessary). Also help immensely during removal when cleaning.
You only use the brake tool and an open end wrench to remove while the rifle is only just snug in the gun vise.
No need to use a new crush washer when clocking is off.
I only have two Savages with brakes but removing them and installing them is easier than using shims or crush washers.
Found them quick on Amazon under 5/8-24 jam nuts. They are if I remember right about .170 thick. And only cost about $5 each with shipping.

Not sure I understand what an "anti-crush" washer does. Do you mean a crush washer?
Last rifle I needed a washer for I was looking and I stumbled on a what was called. a "double crush" washer. Tried one. Worked really well.
Good Job Dave!!!
