This might vest in the stupid questions forum, merely . . . will information technology cause any problem to utilize a 30 cal radial cage restriction on a 6.v mm muzzle? Is it common to have a picayune extra clearance, or is information technology all-time to go tighter?
Thanks

Ideally you lot would apply a 6.5mm break on a half-dozen.5mm gun. Even so y'all volition 100% be fine using a 30 cal break on a 6.5mm

Zero wrong with using xxx cal. I utilize 30 cal suppressor and brakes on half-dozen.v makes no difference.

I ran a 30 cal on my 6.5 Red china. Zip wrong w it every bit stated higher up plus more mileage betwixt cleanings.

You tin always put a smaller object through a bigger pigsty. Yous'll sacrifice individual percentages in recoil performance but I'm fine losing 3%.
I go 30 cal for every attachment and never have to worry nigh putting a smaller hole on a barrel for a bigger bullet considering I merely accept upwards to thirty cal rifles. That's where you get into problem, smaller hole and bigger object.

No bug at all. Any decrease in functioning will exist very very small.
Simply don't practice it backwards.

You lot can ever put a smaller object through a bigger hole. Y'all'll cede individual percentages in recoil performance but I'm fine losing 3%.
I become thirty cal for every attachment and never accept to worry virtually putting a smaller hole on a butt for a bigger bullet considering I only take upwards to thirty cal rifles. That's where you get into trouble, smaller pigsty and bigger object.
Giggity..lol

I don't call up exactly which brake manufacturer it was but I read a while ago (inside the past half dozen months equally I've been looking at 308 and 6.5cm barrels) that the company did some testing and found that you only gained around 5% more recoil reduction using a 6.5 restriction on a 6.5 vs a 30 cal restriction on a six.5. Not enough for me to worry well-nigh getting a 6.5 brake and will only get 30 cal brakes unless i driblet down to 6mm at some betoken.

As mentioned no outcome at all. I take a .338 can adapter brake on one of my half dozen.5s and .30 on the others. I have a .xxx on my 6mm also. Cuts recoil but fine.

Doesn't actually thing.
If you desire a muzzle restriction in which you tin use on multiple different calibers while still maintaining the optimum bore size, look into the newest Insite Heathen. Y'all tin can modify out the inserts on the end to go from say a 6mm to a .30 cal.
Non a necessary feature past whatever means, just something to consider if looking at purchasing a new brake. Has other smashing features as well, it's my favorite self timing brake. If yous already have a .thirty cal brake, and then only run with that.

This is my approach equally well. I realize that I'm giving up a few percent in terms of muzzle brake efficacy, but I am okay with that given the headaches avoided.

Afterward some baffle strikes on cans, I like the extra clearance. With no cans, its no big deal. You lot volition exist fine .

Wow thanks for all the answers.
Yes it was obvious to me that the vi.5 bullet would slide through the 7.62 brake without needing any grease. I asked this question because I establish a used .30 brake for a great cost and wanted to get all your experiences before I bought it for my 6.5.
If I have learned anything about this precision shooting game, it'south that micro-things matter a lot. I pictured maybe the actress annulus of larger brake might create some weird turbulence right at the exit, like to if it wasn't crowned correctly. I have seen posts where shooters talk about unlike brakes causing different ballistics. One in particular said he couldn't get consistency with his 2 port brake, but his iii port brake was perfect. How could that be?
The other matter I've learned information technology that you tin can't calculate everything - y'all get all the info you tin but you just accept to get out and shoot for your own dope. Now that I bought the brake it will be interesting to come across what results I get.
Don't worry - I won't try to go my own dope on a 6mm brake merely to see what happens! I'll await til a crazy you-tuber tries it and picket the video.
Happy New Year!!
