The Gas Mongrel Hybrid muzzle brake was created to be the best of both the WR Ultra Comp and the WR Gas Mongrel muzzle brakes (each the world best in their class).Using the best of WR design specs from the GM and UC brakes, the GM hybrid more so polarises gas direction and dispersion to increase gas velocity to the sides of the bullet axis, reducing felt blast while continuing to minimise muzzle movement during bullet exit.If your needs are for maximum brake, minimal muzzle movement and bounce, minimal ground disturbance, reduced felt blast and slimline brake for practical applications, the Gas Mongrel Hybrid is the best pound for pound brake in the world. It doesn’t get better than this.Reduce muzzle walk with increasing shot-to-shot heat build-up. The GM hybrid is made ULTRA lightweight, thanks to being made from 7075 Aluminium, and a massive increase in surface area will considerably help absorb and dissipate heat away from the muzzle area.
Like all WR brakes, we continue to campaign the non-integrated clock nut. Why? Our math and simulations show modulus of elasticity is causing many disturbances we wish to avoid. WR are advocates for a straight brake thread to a jam nut off the brake shoulder as the BEST fitment method.
Recoil reduction: Over 80 cm² of negative surface area results in Approx 70 to 84% recoil reduction, depending on barrel gas pre-load volume, bullet body length and bullet exit energy. - Vertical jump: Approx 87 to 94% reduced, depending barrel twist (centrifugal momentum). - Vertical bounce: No additional bounce imposed post blast. Less than nett 2% gas directed vertically vector upward above the port top plane. - Helmholtz resonance: Minimised in-barrel time additional resonance during expelling pre-load gases by 3 step chamber design (minimising additional live fire barrel exit movement). - Shooter comfort: The GMH is a brake suitable to nearly every application, with equal capabiltiy offering maximum recoil reduction and as little proportional blast as possible. If the shooter is outdoors (recommended), the felt blast has little pressure on the firers eyes. - Use: For competition and championships where excess recoil will directly affect maximising a potential result and muzzle blast importance not as critical. Maximises the ability to keep sights at the target looking for bullet flight vortex and bullet impact. Typically used for bullet impact sighting type matches such as Practical, ELR, Steel Challenge, PRS, Head Hunter, etc.
NOTE: WR recommends always removing the brake to clean both the barrel and the brake. NOTE: Ensure solvents and obstructions etc are free from the barrel and brake before firing. WR recommends to use a reputable gunsmith to fit and clock the brake. WR does not claim a specific method of clocking as correct. No matter if the fit is brake-to-barrel, jam nut, crush washer, shim or o-ring, what ever method is employed, it should be done CAREFULY with gunsmith direction and advice.
