A: Kent, this muzzle brake locks into position with an external jam nut to align the ports.

A: it uses a Jam nut

A: No sir it will not. This brake is for .308 and similar size rifles with 5/8X24 threads. You would need a muzzle brake that fits a standard .223 AR-15, with 1/2X28 threads. Something along these lines: https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/711020035/phantom+556+smooth+compensator%2fmuzzle+brake+1%2f2-28+threads

A: sorry it will not fit you could get a adapter to go from the smaller 1/2x28 threads to the 5/8x24 threads but it would look funny and not do anything for you

A: No, this muzzle break is designed for the ruger precision rifle and has a different thread pattern.

A: Nick, you actually can with a 5/8×24 to 1/2×28 adapter. The "Con" is that A .22Cal fired through a .30Cal Muzzle Brake of approximately the same size and design is not going to be as effective as one fired through a dedicated .22Cal Muzzle Brake . However, the difference is generally pretty minimal. (https://hughesprecision.com/product/12-28-to-58-24-stainless-steel-barrel-thread-converter-made-by-hughes-precision/)

A: I have the newer Ruger Precision Rifle in Barrett Brown chambered in .308. This is the exact one that comes with the rifle from the factory.
